Collision Lesions of Calcifying Pseudoneoplasm of the Neuraxis and Rheumatoid Nodules: A Case Report With New Pathogenic Insights

Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON) is a rare tumor-like lesion with unclear pathogenesis. Collision lesions of CAPNONs with neoplasms are occasionally reported.
