OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: A rare case of recurrent craniopharyngioma at an ectopic location is described. This recurrence suggested cerebrospinal fluid seeding. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 65-year-old man presented for follow-up of persisting visual field defect. He had undergone total resection of a suprasellar craniopharyngioma via a subfrontal approach 3 years before presentation. Recent magnetic resonance imaging scans revealed a contrast-enhancing tumor with cystic and solid components at the right temporal lobe. The primary tumor bed was intact. INTERVENTION: A temporal craniotomy was performed for total resection of the tumor. Intraoperative findings revealed that the recurrent tumor was anatomically unrelated to the previous surgical track. Histological studies of the tumor specimen demonstrated a benign craniopharyngioma. Cerebrospinal fluid spreading was suspected to be the sole route for the recurrence. CONCLUSION: The case presented here and a review of reports on remote recurrence of craniopharyngioma suggest that care is required during intraoperative handling of the tumor and that long-term follow-up should be performed even in patients whose primary tumor was resected completely. 相似文献

Methotrexate (MTX) has become the most commonly prescribed disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug. However, toxicity is an important drawback of MTX therapy and permanent discontinuation of MTX for adverse effects occurs in 1 patient out of 10. Although high-dose MTX is known to be nephrotoxic, data on low-dose MTX renal effects are scanty. We report an insidious and progressive deterioration of renal function during long-term low-dose MTX in a 59-year-old woman. Kidney biopsy revealed advanced kidney fibrosis with extensive interstitial and glomerular fibrosis, and vascular sclerosis. We suggest that patients on low-dose MTX therapy even alone, should be periodically monitored for creatinine levels. 相似文献

The surgical therapy of the rupture of a distal biceps tendon and a modified postoperative treatment is described. Mainpoint is the early treatment in anaclisis of Kleinert as it is standardized in the treatment of ruptures of the flexor tendons of the hand. A forearm orthesis with a simply ROM-joint without reboundmechanism was used. Possible benefits are shown and further industrial evolution seems to be indicated. 相似文献

Eagle syndrome is characterized by unilateral pain in the oropharynx, the side of the face, and the earlobe. It is caused by an elongated styloid process; resection of the elongated process eliminates the pain. Although quite rare, this syndrome is well represented in the oral, ear, nose, and throat surgery literature. In the neurosurgical literature, on the other hand, there is little if any mention of Eagle syndrome. The author presents a case of a woman who suffered from severe pain in the throat, the side of the face, and the ear. After the diagnosis of Eagle syndrome was made based on radiographic findings and was confirmed using a local anesthetic block, resection of the elongated styloid process was performed, resulting in complete and lasting pain relief. Eagle syndrome, which is caused by compression of the glossopharyngeal nerve as it passes the elongated styloid process, may be classified as an entrapment syndrome deserving of neurosurgical attention. The goal of this report is to familiarize neurosurgeons with Eagle syndrome and its diagnostic work up and treatment. 相似文献

Esthesioneuroblastoma of the pituitary gland: a clinicopathological entity? Case report and review of the literature 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Esthesioneuroblastoma (olfactory neuroblastoma) is a rare, malignant neoplasm that typically arises in the nasal vault, invades adjacent tissues, and causes locoregional (cervical lymph nodes) and distant metastases. Only two cases of tumors arising in the sellar region that had the histological characteristics of esthesioneuroblastoma have been reported in the literature to date. The authors present the case of a 35-year-old woman with secondary amenorrhea and a rapidly growing tumor located in the adenohypophysis. After total removal of the lesion through a transseptal-transsphenoidal approach, the histological examination revealed an esthesioneuroblastoma Grade II/III according to Hyams. Considering the particular location of the lesion and the absence of residual tumor on postoperative magnetic resonance imaging, no adjuvant therapy was performed. The patient remained free from tumor recurrence 2 years postoperatively. Because all published cases of this esthestoneuroblastoma have been large neuroblastic tumors of the pituitary gland arising in middle-aged women, pituitary neuroblastoma might represent a rare, specific clinicopathological entity. 相似文献

A 13-year-old boy with symptomatic Stage III Kienb?ck's disease was treated successfully with a radial shortening procedure. A comparison of the preoperative and postoperative radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging studies showed evidence of lunate revascularization and remodeling after a radial shortening osteotomy. 相似文献

COVID‐19 is novel infectious disease with an evolving understanding of its epidemiology and clinical manifestations. Immunocompromised patients often present atypical presentations of viral diseases. Herein we report a case of a COVID‐19 infection in a solid organ transplant recipient, in which the first clinical symptoms were of gastrointestinal viral disease and fever, which further progressed to respiratory symptoms in 48 hours. In these high risk populations, protocols for screening for SARS‐Cov2 may be needed to be re‐evaluated. 相似文献
