A rare case of primary intracranial myxoma of the posterior fossa is described in a 32-year old woman. The patient presented with a history of headaches, disequilibrium, nausea and abnormal vision for several months. Computed tomography (CT) showed a well-demarcated hypodense mass. After contrast administration the mass appeared as an inhomogeneously enhancing lesion surrounded by a small rim of edema. The mass was surgically excised with histological examination revealing a true myxoma. Echocardiography revealed no evidence of a cardiac myxoma. The CT appearance of other case reports of non-cardiac myxomas in the literature is reviewed.
本文描述了一名32岁女性后颅窝原发性颅内黏液瘤的罕见病例。患者有数月头痛、平衡失调、恶心及视力异常病史。计算机断层扫描（CT）显示一个边界清晰的低密度肿块。注射造影剂后，肿块表现为不均匀强化的病变，周围有一小片水肿带。该肿块经手术切除，组织学检查显示为真性黏液瘤。超声心动图检查未发现心脏黏液瘤的证据。本文还回顾了文献中其他非心脏黏液瘤病例报告的CT表现。
