 There are postoperative findings related to C2 peripheral nerve sheath tumor resection and C2-4 posterior fusion. At C2-C3, there is a 10 x 9 mm enhancing lesion within the right neuroforamen, grossly unchanged in size compared to prior. There is mild facet hypertrophy at several levels. At C5-C6, there is uncovertebral osteophyte which results in moderate bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. There is mild effacement of the ventral thecal space. There is mild loss of disc height at this level. At C6-C7, there is endplate and uncovertebral hypertrophy with resultant bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. There may be minimal narrowing of the spinal canal at this level. The cervical spine is in normal alignment, with a normal cervical lordosis. The vertebral body heights are well-maintained. The spinal cord is of normal caliber and signal. There is no pathological enhancement. There is a partially imaged T2 signal abnormality in the pons, which may be nonspecific and was better visualized on the MRI of the brain from 2/4/2015.
1. Postoperative findings related to C2 peripheral nerve sheath tumor resection and C2-C4 posterior fusion. Stable enhancing lesion in the right neural foramen at C2-C3, without significant interval change compared to prior and may represent residual or recurrent tumor.2. Degenerative changes in the cervical spine mostly at C5-C6 and C6-C7, unchanged.3. Partially imaged T2 signal abnormality in the pons, which is nonspecific and was better visualized on the MRI of the brain from 2/4/2015.
