Central neurocytomas (CNs) are rare benign tumors located in the central nervous system with a good prognosis. These tumors are predominantly located in the lateral ventricle near the foramen of Monro or in the third ventricle. Similar tumors that are located outside the ventricle are also called extraventricular neurocytomas, and have an even lower morbidity. Until now, several tumors have been identified in the thalamus, cerebellum, pons, medulla oblongata and spinal cord. In total, 24 cases of neurocytomas located in the spinal cord have been reported in English journals. The present study reported a patient with an intramedullary central neurocytoma of the thoracic spinal cord, diagnosed from clinical features, imaging findings, pathology and immunohistochemistry. The present case report also outlined the prognosis of the patient and reviewed the literature currently available on CNs located in the spinal cord.
