Complete en bloc surgical resection should be attempted in patients with intraspinal SFT/HPC to prevent postoperative recurrence or regrowth. As this tumor is often preoperatively misdiagnosed, we recommend that the imaging findings exhibited in this study should be used to positively suspect SFT/HPC. This will enhance patient outcomes by enabling more appropriate preoperative surgical planning.
