The third case of intramedullary subependymoma of the cervical spinal cord is reported. This is the first such case for which intraoperative views are available. It was possible to remove most of this lesion with the aid of the operating microscope, the carbon dioxide laser, and the use of somatosensory evoked potentials. The diagnosis was clouded by the coexistence of Holmes-Adie pupils and absent reflexes in the lower extremities. All three reported intramedullary subependymomas have been found in the cervical spinal cord of middle-aged patients. Tumors in this clinical setting should not be assumed to be unresectable astrocytomas without careful histopathological and intraoperative evaluation. 相似文献

A 62-year-old woman was admitted complaining of clumsiness in both hands. On neurological examination, bilateral hand muscles were weak, both legs were spastic and hyperreflexic, all the extremities were hypoesthetic. Urological examination revealed detruser sphincter dyssynergia. Spinal CT scan demonstrated an iso density mass lesion in the cervical spinal cord, and it was markedly enhanced. On MRI, it was also markedly enhanced by Gd-DTPA. The operative finding was that an oval shaped tumor was buried in the spinal cord and was totally removed. Its histological diagnosis was neurofibroma. Intramedullary neurofibroma is rare and only 18 cases have been reported. In this case the tumor seemed to have arisen at the root entry zone and to have grown sub-pially. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Clear cell ependymoma of the spinal cord has not been reported in the literature, although ependymoma in the cerebral and cerebellar hemispheres has been described. We present the first case report of this rare histological type of ependymoma arising in the cervical spinal cord and emphasize the importance of recognizing this histological entity. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 42-year-old woman presented with numbness in both upper limbs and spastic gait. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intramedullary tumor at the C6-T1 level with syringomyelia. INTERVENTION: The tumor was totally removed. Histological analysis revealed that the tumor was composed of round cells with perinuclear halos similar to those observed in oligodendroglioma. However, we diagnosed clear cell ependymoma because these tumor cells exhibited epithelial features and ependymal rosettes under light microscopic examination. CONCLUSION: Histological diagnosis was crucial to our determining whether to perform postoperative adjuvant therapy in this patient. Neurosurgeons should be aware of the possibility of this histological entity among intramedullary spinal cord tumors. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Reported is a case of a thoracic intramedullary astrocytoma with a lipomatous component, a so-called astrolipoma. This is the only known case of a single intraspinal astrolipoma in an otherwise healthy patient. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: The patient was a 36-year-old woman with dorsal thoracic pain of more than 1 month's duration, mild lower extremity weakness, and incomplete sensory loss to the T10 level. INTERVENTION: Magnetic resonance imaging of the thoracolumbar spine revealed a fusiform mass at the T9-T11 level. The patient underwent T9-T11 laminectomies and complete resection of the tumor. In the initial postoperative period, the patient's symptoms worsened. However, 3 months after surgery, the patient was clinically improved and was able to walk without assistance. Twelve months after surgery, imaging revealed no evidence of tumor. CONCLUSION: The current treatment plan and recommendation, assuming this tumor will behave like a low-grade glioma or lipoma, is continued radiographic surveillance after gross total resection. Reresection is recommended for tumor recurrence or significant regrowth. The long-term prognosis for astrolipoma is unknown. 相似文献

Intramedullary spinal cord germinoma: case report 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A case of intramedullary spinal cord germinoma within the conus medullaris, with lumbago and pain in the lower extremities, is presented. The intramedullary spinal cord germinoma was determined by a biopsy specimen. After local irradiation of 50 Gy, the tumor markedly decreased in size and clinical symptoms disappeared. 相似文献

A case of spinal dumbbell shaped melanotic schwannoma was reported. A 58-year-old housewife had a 3-months history of progressive gait disturbance. She also complained of mild backache and numbness in both legs. Her family history was not remarkable. When examined on admission, October 10, 1982, mild weakness of both legs with spasticity and sensory impairment below the level of T10 dermatome without sacral sparing were evident. Her deep tendon reflexes were hyperactive on both sides and plantar responses were extensor bilaterally. Sphincteric disturbance was not significant. The function of her cranial nerves was intact. She had neither cutaneous lesions, abdominal mass nor organomegaly. Thoracic plain X-rays revealed erosion of the right side vertebral body and pedicle of the 10th thoracic vertebra. Myelography disclosed a complete block at the same level by an epidural mass. On CT-myelogram, soft tissue density mass compressing the thoracic cord was apparent in the right epidural space of the spinal canal which extended to the paravertebral region through the right intervertebral foramen. Partial destruction of the body and the right side pedicle was easily recognized. Laminectomy from T9 to T11 exposed a large extradural mass which was encapsulated, elastic soft and pigmented in nature. The tumor was dumbbell shaped and extended to the right paravertebral region through the intervertebral foramen. Costotransversectomy was performed to excise the mass entirely. Following the total removal of the tumor, internal fixation was carried out by means of Harrington instrumentation with methylmethacrylate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A 9-year-old boy presented with the numbness in both arms and hands, and neck stiffness. On examination, he had a slight quadriparesis and restricted neck movements. There were no signs of von Recklinghausen's disease. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan disclosed a gadolinium enhanced intramedullary tumor located at C6-T1 associated with syringomyelia. C6-T1 laminectomies were performed and the intramedullary tumor was totally removed by a microsurgical technique. Postoperative course was uneventful. The pathological examination revealed an intramedullary schwannoma. The occurrence of intramedullary schwannoma in a patient without signs of von Recklinghausen's disease is extremely rare. We have been able to find 57 cases of intramedullary schwannoma reported in the literature. Intramedullary schwannomas are usually seen in males. The ages of the patients ranged from 9 to 75 years (mean 40.44 years). Only 4 cases in the pediatric age group have been reported. The duration of symptoms ranged from 3 months to 20 years (mean 31.03 months). Symptoms and signs varied with the location of tumor. The vertebral levels of intramedullary schwannomas were usually cervical (61%). MRI has been the choice of diagnostic tool in the cases reported since 1986. The majority of the cases showed either a partial or complete recovery in the postoperative period. 相似文献

We report a case of a patient with an intramedullary tumor of the cervicomedullary junction. At operation, the tumor was noted to be highly pigmented, and pathological study demonstrated that the tumor was a melanotic schwannoma. Both intramedullary schwannomas and melanotic schwannomas in any location in the body are exceedingly rare. This is the first reported case of an intramedullary melanotic schwannoma of the central nervous system. The possible origin of this tumor is discussed. 相似文献

A rare case of intramedullary spinal cord metastasis associated with hemorrhage was reported. A 74-year-old man had a subacute onset of paraparesis. He became almost paraplegic within a few days. MRI revealed an intramedullary spinal lesion in the epiconus at the Th 11 and Th 12 level, but spinal angiography did not show any abnormality. Since repeated MRI showed enlargement of the lesion, surgery was performed under the diagnosis of an intramedullary spinal cord tumor. Under general anesthesia, a midline myelotomy of about 3 cm was performed and a grayish, elastic and circumscribed tumor as well as a liquefied hematoma in the caudal part was observed. Both the tumor and the hematoma were removed almost totally. The patient's paraparesis improved slightly after surgery. The histological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma. The primary source was unknown, but multiple small metastatic tumors were found in the lung, liver and brain, etc. Hemorrhage from intramedullary spinal cord metastasis is extremely rare with only 6 reported cases in the recent literature. Rapid deterioration of symptoms caused by the hematoma may make the diagnosis more difficult. Indication of surgical treatment should be carefully determined because prognosis of intramedullary spinal cord metastasis is generally very poor. 相似文献

A case of an intramedullary melanotic schwannoma located in the spinal cord at the T2-T3 level is described. The lesion occurred in a 44-year-old woman with a 10-year history of weakness and sensory numbness in both legs and feet. At operation the lesion appeared as a well-demarcated grey-brown intramedullary mass. Histologically, it was composed of interlacing bundles of spindle cells showing their cytoplasm filled with melanin. Among spinal cord neoplasms, melanotic schwannomas are rare tumours, which have apparently been reported only in three previous instances. The clinical, diagnostic and pathological features, as well as the possible aetiology of these rare tumours are discussed. 相似文献

Background contextMelanotic schwannoma is a very rare tumor of Schwann cell origin, which can develop in various locations, similar to conventional schwannoma. This tumor has a malignant potential and therefore careful therapy is required.PurposeTo describe a case of melanotic schwannoma with a histopathologically and clinically malignant behavior.Study designCase report.MethodsA 64-year-old man presented with sensory changes in his arm and gait disturbance. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a dumbbell-shaped tumor at the left C7 spinal root, which was hyperintense on T1-weighted images and generally hypointense on T2-weighted images in comparison with conventional schwannoma; however, the peripheral zone was relatively hyperintense, and the central zone was hypointense like a target sign.ResultsThe tumor was partially resected and diagnosed to be nonpsammomatous malignant melanotic schwannoma. The patient experienced local recurrence and metastases to the bone and lung and finally developed quadriplegia. Radiation therapy failed to palliate the symptoms.ConclusionsSome melanotic schwannomas present with an aggressive behavior, which thus leads to poor prognosis. We should therefore be familiar with its characteristic clinical imaging and pathologic findings to provide a correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment for such patients. 相似文献
