Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is an uncommon tumor type of neural crest origin, which, in the majority of cases, arises in the nasal cavity. We present a rare primary presentation of ENB in the sphenoidal area studied with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR). To our knowledge, this is the first case in which MR findings are available.
嗅神经母细胞瘤(ENB)是一种起源于神经嵴的罕见肿瘤类型,在大多数情况下,它发生于鼻腔。我们报告了一例罕见的原发性嗅神经母细胞瘤,位于蝶骨区域,采用计算机断层扫描(CT)和磁共振成像(MR)进行了研究。据我们所知,这是第一例有MR检查结果的病例。
