Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Hemangiopericytomas are a rare entity commonly presenting as subdural tumors.
UNASSIGNED: A 57-year-old man presented with a progressive visual disturbance over a period of 3 weeks. Cranial computed tomography scans revealed an isodense mass at the tip of the left middle fossa, extending into the orbital apex, and accompanying bony erosions in the sphenoid ridge. On magnetic resonance imaging, the lesion appeared isointense both on T1- and T2-weighted sequences, and intensely enhanced on contrast examinations. A frontotemporal craniotomy revealed a dura-based, capsulized tumor located entirely in the epidural space. A gross total resection was achieved for the tumor and histologically verified as hemangiopericytoma.
UNASSIGNED: Hemangiopericytoma should be assumed in a differential diagnosis when encountering epidural tumors, and total resection should be attempted when possible.
