Ganglioneuromas are rare benign neurogenous neoplasms. The clinical symptoms of ganglioneuromas of the neck are usually mild and non-specific and definitive diagnosis requires a histological examination. We present the case of a 35-year-old female who complained of retroauricular pain as her first
Ganglioneuromas (GN) are neural crest cell-derived tumors which may coexist with pheochromocytomas, secrete various neuropeptides or the symptoms may mimic that of a pheochromocytoma, producing hypertension or a hypotensive crisis during anesthesia for these tumors. We report here the case of a
OBJECTIVE
Dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum (Lhermitte-Duclos disease) is a rare hamartomatous lesion of the cerebellar cortex. The pathogenesis of the disease is still poorly understood. Lhermitte-Duclos disease was recently considered to be part of a multiple hamartoma-neoplasia syndrome
BACKGROUND
A gangliocytoma rarely coexists with a pituitary adenoma in a sellar lesion. Herein, we describe our experience in treating a mixed gangliocytoma and prolactinoma of the pituitary gland.
METHODS
A 16-year-old male presented with severe headache and vomiting. Magnetic resonance imaging
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment for adrenal ganglioneuroma.
METHODS
Thirty cases of adrenal ganglioneuroma at our hospital from 1999 to 2010 were reviewed. Their clinical, radiological, laboratory and pathologic findings as well as follow-up data were
We report a case of a 60-year-old man who presented with weight gain, headaches, dizziness, erectile dysfunction and decreased libido. He was found to have elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and prolactin serum levels. The imaging studies revealed a 1.4 cm sella/suprasellar mass which was
A case of pineal gangliocytoma in a 51 year-old man is presented. He was admitted to the hospital on February 2, 1982, with complaints of headache, nuchal pain, blurred vision, nausea and vomiting of three years' duration. Neurological examination did not show any neurological deficits but bilateral
Background: Dysplastic gangliocytoma is a sporadic cerebellar benign tumor with the characteristics of hamartoma and true tumor, also known as Lhermitte-Duclos 's disease. Bone fibrous dysplasia is a slowly progressive self-limited benign
A patient with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH) associated with a gangliocytoma growing from within the sella turcica is reported. This tumor displaced the floor of the third ventricle and surrounded the internal carotid artery on the same side as the headache. Partial removal of the tumor
A gangliocytoma in the sellar region is very rare. We report a case of an intrasellar gangliocytoma complicated by pituitary adenoma presenting with acromegaly. A 52-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with headache, mild acromegaly, and bitemporal hemianopsia, and endocrinological study
BACKGROUND
Mixed pituitary adenoma-gangliocytomas are rare tumors with a broad morphologic spectrum. Smear cytology is a useful tool for recognizing these tumors in an intraoperative setting.
METHODS
The patients were 45 and 30 years old, and both presented with headache. Intraoperative smears in
Bone formation in pituitary adenoma is an extremely rare finding. Only five previous cases have been published. This is the sixth case report of an ossifying pituitary adenoma and the first case report of a pituitary adenoma with bone formation coexisting with WHO grade II astrocytoma. MRI imaging
The unusual concurrence of a brain tumor and an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is discussed in this case report. A 12-year-old child presented with a severe headache, and an intracerebral mass was found on neuroradiological study. At operation, we encountered a superficial AVM, not shown on the
A 55-year-old man present with a case of ganglioneuroma manifesting as sudden onset of severe headache. T(1)-weighted magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a heterogeneously enhanced mass (3 × 3 × 2.5 cm) in the left middle cranial fossa compressing the left cavernous sinus. The tumor was totally
An unusual pheochromocytoma was incidentally discovered in a 48-year-old woman. The patient had a 3-year history of myasthenia gravis. At the time of examination in our hospital, the right adrenal tumor was incidentally discovered by ultrasonography of the abdomen. She had no history of headache,
