A 74-year-old man with back pain, foot numbness, and hip/thigh radiculopathy was found to have an L1-L2 intradural extramedullary neoplasm and severe L4-L5 stenosis. L4-L5 minimally invasive laminectomy for decompression and concomitant L1-L2 minimally invasive laminectomy for tumor resection were planned. ⋯ Immediate postoperative imaging showed that the intradural extramedullary tumor had migrated caudally by nearly a complete spinal level, presumably due to changes in cerebrospinal fluid pressure and resultant shift in intradural contents after the L4-L5 laminectomy. Successful resection of the intradural extramedullary tumor was performed, with improvement in the patient's symptoms.
