The authors report a case of a 6 month-old male presenting with increasing head circumference and a large benign intraventricular meningioma which was grossly removed at the initial surgery. Twenty-four months later, the patient returned with subcutaneous and osseous metastatic lesions at the site of the previous craniotomy, revealing the same histology as the original tumour. The presentation, pathology and management of this unique case are discussed.
作者报告了一例6个月大的男性病例,该患儿头围不断增大,患有一个巨大的良性脑室内脑膜瘤,在初次手术时已将其大体切除。24个月后,患者因先前开颅手术部位出现皮下和骨质转移瘤而复诊,转移瘤的组织学特征与原发肿瘤相同。本文讨论了这一独特病例的临床表现、病理及治疗情况。
