Myxomas are rare benign tumors that originate from mesenchymal tissue. They usually develop in the atrium of the heart, the skin, subcutaneous tissue, or bone. Involvement of the skull base with an intracranial extension is very rare and not well-described in the literature. We report a rare case of primary intracranial ossifying myxoma arising from the anterior skull base and mimicking a huge chondrosarcoma, and we review the relevant literature.
黏液瘤是起源于间叶组织的罕见良性肿瘤。它们通常发生在心脏心房、皮肤、皮下组织或骨骼中。颅底受累并伴有颅内扩展的情况非常罕见,且文献中对此描述不多。我们报告了一例罕见的原发性颅内骨化性黏液瘤,起源于前颅底,酷似巨大软骨肉瘤,并对相关文献进行了综述。
