Spinal intraosseous schwannomas (SIS) are rare, and as yet have not been fully described in the literature. The first case of SIS was reported in 1971, and 24 cases of SIS have been reported so far. However, including the present case, there are only seven cases without spinal canal and neuroforamina involvement.
