Germ cell tumors of the basal ganglia are rare neoplasms that usually present with hemiparesis or other neurological symptoms. MR and PET/CT with different tracers have demonstrated their usefulness for the correct assessment of disease. Crossed cerebellar diaschisis refers to a depression in metabolism of a cerebellar hemisphere as a result of contralateral supratentorial lesions. We present a case in which MR and PET/CT were crucial for the assessment of left basal ganglia germ cell tumors with the presence of crossed cerebellar diaschisis.
基底节生殖细胞瘤是罕见的肿瘤，通常表现为偏瘫或其他神经症状。MR 和使用不同示踪剂的 PET/CT 已证明它们在正确评估疾病方面的有用性。交叉性小脑失联络是指由于对侧幕上病变导致小脑半球代谢降低。我们报告了一个病例，MR 和 PET/CT 对评估存在交叉性小脑失联络的左侧基底节生殖细胞瘤至关重要。
