Melanotic neuroectodermal tumor of infancy (MNTI) is a rare lesion that typically manifests in the first year of life, most commonly involving the facial bones. We present 2 infants with MNTI involving the posterior skull with associated compression of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). A review of the anatomical locations of MNTI is offered, and the implications of SSS involvement are described. This represents the first known description of MNTI with involvement of the posterior SSS.
婴儿黑色素性神经外胚层肿瘤(MNTI)是一种罕见的病变,通常在出生后第一年出现,最常见于累及面骨。我们报告2例累及后颅骨并伴有上矢状窦(SSS)受压的婴儿MNTI病例。本文提供了MNTI解剖位置的综述,并描述了SSS受累的影响。这是已知的首例关于MNTI累及后SSS的描述。
