The authors present a case of intramedullary ganglioglioma in a 6-year-old girl. Since the age of 4 months the patient had experienced a spontaneous wavy undulating movement of her anterior abdominal wall resembling a severe peristalsis. The movement was continuous even during sleep, and this symptom was named "belly dance." Magnetic resonance images revealed an intramedullary tumor with ill-defined borders, and the lesion was partially resected. The patient made a good recovery, although 4 years postsurgery her scoliosis had progressed.
作者报告了一例6岁女孩的髓内神经节胶质瘤病例。自4个月大以来,该患者前腹壁出现自发的波浪状起伏运动,类似严重的蠕动。即使在睡眠期间,这种运动也持续存在,这种症状被命名为“肚皮舞”。磁共振成像显示一个边界不清的髓内肿瘤,该病变被部分切除。患者恢复良好,尽管术后4年她的脊柱侧弯有所进展。
