The authors relate a case of gastric cancer on a 47 years woman, revealed by the presence of nerve roots metastasis whose evolution was fatal in 13 months. They are pointing out the singularity of this pathology as only 29 cases have been published to date. The clinical and radiological diagnosis must cancel the existence of paraneoplasic polyradiculoneuritis, only by histological examination of the roots. The primary cancer concerns often the breast, the lungs and the stomach. But 25% of cases remain unknown. Among the various terms proposed to define this neurological complication of visceral neoplasms, the authors are selecting the expression of "metastatic meningoradiculitis", as the best reflecting of the anatomical scheme.
作者讲述了一名47岁女性胃癌病例,该病例因神经根转移而被发现,病程13个月后死亡。他们指出这种病理情况的独特性,因为迄今为止仅发表了29例。临床和放射学诊断必须通过神经根的组织学检查才能排除副肿瘤性多发性神经根神经炎的存在。原发性癌症通常涉及乳腺、肺和胃。但25%的病例病因不明。在为定义内脏肿瘤的这种神经并发症而提出的各种术语中,作者选择“转移性脑脊神经根炎”这一表述,因为它最能反映解剖学情况。
