Background: Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is a rare skeletal muscle channelopathy characterized by intermittent episodes of acute flaccid paralysis with associated hypokalaemia. We present here the case of a first-onset hypokalemic
We report an unusual case of ependymoma with pigmentation, a phenomenon that has only been described in a few cases, to our knowledge. This tumor occurred in the fourth ventricle of a 45-year-old man. It showed the typical histologic appearance of ependymoma with perivascular pseudorosettes and rare
BACKGROUND
Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 201Tl and 123I-alpha-methyl tyrosine (123I-IMT) are routine methods for the evaluation of brain tumors. 123I-IMT transport across the blood brain barrier is mediated by an amino acid carrier, 201Tl accumulation is analogous to
The histopathology of papillary tumours of the pineal region (PTPR) closely resembles that of ependymomas and choroid plexus tumours. Therefore, immunohistochemical staining profiles were investigated in a series of 15 PTPR. In addition to cytokeratin, synaptophysin and glial fibrillary acidic
Choroid plexus neoplasms are uncommon brain tumors in dogs. Choroid plexus carcinomas often spread diffusely throughout the ventricular system and subarachnoid space and, in aggressive forms, can mimic histologic patterns of other carcinomas, including being embedded in a desmoplastic reaction.
