We report the case of a 16 year old male with a left temporal myxopapillary ependymoma which did not demonstrate any connection to the lateral ventricles. The patient had complained of headaches for ten months and signs of increased intracranial pressure for one month. One month post-operatively, because of lower back pain, further investigations disclosed two separate intraspinal myxopapillary ependymomas, one at T12-L1 level and the other at L5-S1 level. It is postulated that the cerebral myxopapillary ependymoma was in fact a secondary from one of the spinal cord tumors. There are only three reports of this type of ependymoma in the cerebrum.
我们报告了一例16岁男性患者，患有左颞叶黏液乳头型室管膜瘤，该肿瘤与侧脑室无任何连接。患者主诉头痛10个月，颅内压升高体征1个月。术后1个月，因下背部疼痛，进一步检查发现两处独立的脊髓内黏液乳头型室管膜瘤，一处位于T12-L1水平，另一处位于L5-S1水平。据推测，大脑黏液乳头型室管膜瘤实际上是脊髓肿瘤之一的继发性肿瘤。大脑中这种类型的室管膜瘤仅有3例报告。
