Reactive gliosis was found in a 40-year-old man who presented with intractable seizures thought to be due to a malignant neoplasm. Although two separate lesions located bilaterally in the frontal lobes were evident on the computed tomographic scan, a connection between these lesions along the fibers of the corpus callosum was clearly demonstrated on T2-weighted magnetic resonance images. The unusual radiological appearance of this gliosis, which simulated a malignant butterfly glioma on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is reported. Because MRI is still a new modality, its images should be interpreted with judicious caution.
在一名40岁男性患者中发现反应性胶质增生,该患者表现为顽固性癫痫发作,推测是由恶性肿瘤引起的。尽管计算机断层扫描显示双侧额叶有两个独立的病变,但在T2加权磁共振图像上清楚地显示了这些病变沿胼胝体纤维的连接。本文报道了这种胶质增生不寻常的放射学表现,其在磁共振成像(MRI)上类似恶性蝶形胶质瘤。由于MRI仍是一种新的检查方式,对其图像的解读应谨慎小心。
