case_images: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thoracic spine. (a) Sagittal T2-weighted revealed an intramedullary expansive lesion (yellow arrow). (b) Sagittal T2-weighted short-tau inversion recovery (STIR) image revealing an intramedullary intradural hyperintense mass (yellow arrow) at the T8-T9 level.

case_images: The magnetic ressonance imaging (MRI) of the spine demonstrated an intramedullary expansive lesion at the T8-T9 level that markedly enhanced with contrast [Figures 1 and 2].
case_images: MRI of the thoracic spine. (a) Axial T2-weighted and (b) axial T2-weighted Gd-enhanced image demonstrating a hyperintense lesion infiltrating the spinal cord located at T8-T9 (yellow arrow).

case_images: The magnetic ressonance imaging (MRI) of the spine demonstrated an intramedullary expansive lesion at the T8-T9 level that markedly enhanced with contrast [Figures 1 and 2].
case_images: Histology of intramedullary histoplasmosis lesion. (a) Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining revealed inflammatory process, where epithelioid macrophages, lymphocytes, and multinucleated giant cell are observed. (b) Grocott methenamine silves (GMS) staining identified fungal microorganisms that are morphologically consistent with histoplasma.
