Abstract:
Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumours (DL-GNT) are rare, with an unknown incidence but fewer than 100 cases reported since 2012. The clinical presentation is non-specific, ranging from abdominal to neurological symptoms. Presently, definitive radiological criteria aren\'t established, but some features, such as nodules, characteristic extension patterns and post-contrast leptomeningeal enhancement, are found to be prominent. We present the case of a 14-year-old male with an advanced case of DL-GNT, with MRI showing all the features of what is currently thought to be the typical radiological presentation. The patient is currently undergoing treatment but remains severely handicapped by the disease.
摘要:
弥漫性软脑膜神经胶质瘤(DL-GNT)很少见,发病率未知,但自2012年以来报告的病例少于100例。临床表现是非特异性的,从腹部到神经症状。目前,明确的放射标准尚未建立,但有些特点,如结节,特征延伸模式和对比后软脑膜增强,被发现是突出的。我们介绍了一名14岁男性患有晚期DL-GNT的病例,MRI显示了目前被认为是典型放射学表现的所有特征。该患者目前正在接受治疗,但仍受到该疾病的严重障碍。
