Case 2: 42-year-old woman with VHLD without subjective symptoms.

A and B, Contrast-enhanced sagittal T1-weighted FSE images (600/12/6) show nodular, intensely and homogeneously enhancing tumors at the posterior aspects of the spinal cord at levels C5, C6, T8–T9, and T9–T10.

C, Sagittal T2-weighted TSE image (4500/112/3) shows a syrinx at T7–T8 and adjacent edema at T9–T10. This image is a composite of the upper and lower halves of the MR images of the spine.

D, Contrast-enhanced axial T1-weighted TSE image (1000/12/2) shows the tumor surrounding a posterior nerve root at C6, as is also the case with other tumors at C5 and C7–T1 (not shown).
