We present a case of cerebral infestation by Echinococcosis multilocularis mimicking an infiltrative primary brain tumor. A heavily calcified mass invading the midbrain enhanced in a cauliflower-like fashion with small peripheral nodules present on MR imaging. Perfusion-weighted MR imaging revealed low relative cerebral blood volume within the calcified lesion and peripheral hyperemia. Single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy with an echo time of 135 milliseconds was normal.
我们报告一例由多房棘球绦虫引起的脑内感染病例,其表现酷似浸润性原发性脑肿瘤。一个重度钙化的肿块侵犯中脑,在磁共振成像(MR)上呈菜花状强化,周边有小结节。灌注加权MR成像显示钙化病灶内相对脑血容量低,周边充血。回波时间为135毫秒的单体素质子MR波谱分析结果正常。
