Cauda equina neuroendocrine tumor

Discussion:

Large slow growing spinal paraganglioma. In this case, the only clue to the diagnosis are the large flow voids over the conus. 

Note: These tumors were previously known as spinal paragangliomas however they are molecularly and genetically distinct from paragangliomas seen elsewhere in the body and as such the term spinal (or cauda equina) neuroendocrine tumor is preferred in the 5th edition (2021) WHO classification of CNS tumors
