The mass was hypointense on T1-weighted image, hyperintense on T2-weighted image and showed heterogeneous contrast enhancement. The mass also displaced the thoracic aorta laterally (figure 2). The dorsal vertebral bodies were hyperintense on T2, but there was no destruction of the vertebral bodies and the disc space was also normal, hence ruling out a primary infective process of the spine such as … |
