8y MC Golden Retriever with 4‐month history of progressive pelvic limb paresis. MR images show a T1 isointense, T2 hyperintense,
heterogeneously enhancing, ovoid intrinsic spinal cord mass at the level of the L3–4 intervertebral disk space (a–f: arrow). Surgical
exposure shows a focal increase in cord diameter consistent with the MR appearance (g: arrowheads). Surgical excisional biopsy
confirmed a diagnosis of glioblastoma multiforme WHO grade II oligodendroglioma.
