The purpose of this article is to present the radiological findings of peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors that arise in the retroperitoneum.
Peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) arising in the retroperitoneum tend to be large and aggressive. Although the imaging appearance of peripheral PNETs is nonspecific, these tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis when one encounters a large retroperitoneal mass with aggressive features.
本文旨在介绍发生于腹膜后的外周原始神经外胚层肿瘤的影像学表现。
发生于腹膜后的外周原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNETs)往往体积较大且具有侵袭性。尽管外周PNETs的影像学表现不具有特异性,但当遇到具有侵袭性特征的腹膜后大肿块时,在鉴别诊断中应考虑这些肿瘤。
