We describe a case of cerebellar pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) occurring in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). The histomorphology of this uncommon glial (astrocytic) neoplasm is discussed. The occurrence of this tumor within the posterior fossa is extremely rare. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a cerebellar PXA in a patient with NF1.
我们描述了一例发生在1型神经纤维瘤病(NF1)患者中的小脑多形性黄色星形细胞瘤(PXA)。本文讨论了这种罕见的神经胶质(星形细胞)肿瘤的组织形态学。该肿瘤发生于后颅窝极为罕见。据我们所知,这是首例报道的NF1患者发生的小脑PXA。
