The authors report the case of a nine-year-old boy admitted with raised intracranial pressure in relation with a tumour of the right lateral ventricle. Complete removal of the lesion was achieved and pathological diagnosis was glioblastoma multiform. Adjuvant radio and chemotherapy was given, but the child died from a recurrence of the disease one year after diagnosis. In addition, last MRI demonstrated, distant from the initial tumor site, an extra-cerebral lesion that is supposed to be a glioma metastasis rather than a radio-induced tumour.
作者报告了一例9岁男孩的病例,该男孩因右侧脑室肿瘤导致颅内压升高而入院。病变被完全切除,病理诊断为多形性胶质母细胞瘤。给予了辅助放疗和化疗,但患儿在诊断后一年因疾病复发死亡。此外,最近的磁共振成像显示,在远离初始肿瘤部位处有一个脑外病变,推测为胶质瘤转移而非放射性肿瘤。
