Abstract
Multiple occurrences of spinal tumors are a rare phenomenon that usually results from underlying genetic diseases. Schwannoma and meningioma are well-known benign spinal tumors commonly found in the intradural extramedullary (IDEM) space with different cellular origins. We present an extremely rare case of neighboring concurrence of meningioma and schwannoma in the lumbar spine in a patient without an underlying genetic disease. Pathological studies regarding the concurrent IDEM tumors are demonstrated, along with a literature review.
