The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical profile of patients harboring extrathecal and intraradicular nerve sheath tumors (NSTs), located inside the sleeve of an extrathecal nerve root and very often within the proximal portion of the spinal nerve, and to evaluate the incidence of long-term dysfunction of the tumor-affected roots if resected. These tumors have not received particular attention in the literature.
