Meningeal carcinomatosis as presenting symptom is rare. We report a patient who presented with an isolated abducens nerve palsy and an unsteady gait. At autopsy the primary tumor proved to be a gallbladder carcinoma. Only one similar case has been reported. Several aspects are discussed, including the route by which the tumor cells could have reached the subarachnoid space.
以脑膜癌病为首发症状较为罕见。我们报告一例患者,其表现为孤立性展神经麻痹和步态不稳。尸检发现原发肿瘤为胆囊癌。此前仅报道过一例类似病例。本文讨论了几个方面,包括肿瘤细胞可能到达蛛网膜下腔的途径。
