Thoracic and Lumbo-sacral Spinal Lipoma in an Infant

We reported a case of thoracic and lumbosacral spinal lipoma in an 8 month-old boy. He was born in asphyxia. Six months after birth, spastic paraparesis developed gradually at both lower extremities and secondary funnel chest due to shallow thoracic movement and scoliosis in the thoracic region was observed. MRI was then performed where tumor mass demonstrated by the high signals in both T1 and T2 in ages was confirmed in the thoracic and lumbo-sacral regions.
