Clin Neuropathol. 1987 May-Jun;6(3):120-2.
A 19-year-old male was hospitalized with a swelling tumor in his left foot. Bone marrow analysis showed marrow carcinosis. Blood investigations, x-rays, radioisotopic scanning and computer tomography did not show any signs of a tumor. The patient died 6 months after the first admission to hospital. Autopsy showed alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) in planta pedis. Besides metastasis in the columna and thoracal lymph nodes, there was tumor tissue in the arachnoidea and subarachnoidal bleeding, a combination not earlier described. ARMS is highly malignant and most of the patients are young.
一名19岁男性因左脚肿瘤肿胀住院。骨髓分析显示骨髓癌变。血液检查、X光、放射性同位素扫描和计算机断层扫描均未显示肿瘤迹象。该患者首次入院6个月后死亡。尸检显示足底肺泡横纹肌肉瘤(ARMS)。除了脊柱和胸段淋巴结转移外,蛛网膜下有肿瘤组织和蛛网膜下腔出血,这种组合此前未见描述。ARMS恶性程度高,大多数患者为年轻人。
