Calcifying pseudoneoplasms of the neuraxis are rare, benign, slow-growing lesions, which occur anywhere in the central nervous system without any age or sex predilection. The lesion's clinical course is variable and poorly understood because a limited number of cases have been reported in the literature. In this report, we present a case of calcifying pseudoneoplasms of the neuraxis in the lateral cerebello-medullary junction, which was removed via a far-lateral approach. To best of our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating actual lesions in a real-time surgical video, which may make the readers and viewers aware of such a pathology if they encounter this rare lesion.
神经轴索钙化性假瘤是一种罕见的、良性的、生长缓慢的病变，可发生于中枢神经系统的任何部位，无年龄或性别倾向。由于文献报道的病例数量有限，该病变的临床病程多变且了解甚少。在本报告中，我们展示了一例发生于小脑延髓外侧交界区的神经轴索钙化性假瘤病例，该病例通过远外侧入路进行了切除。据我们所知，这是第一份在实时手术视频中展示实际病变的报告，这可能会使读者和观众在遇到这种罕见病变时对其有所了解。
