ganglioneuroma/nausea

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

An 11-year-old boy presented with acute nausea and right lower quadrant pain. A contrast-enhanced CT demonstrated a 10-cm left retroperitoneal mass and no other suspicious findings. An fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography performed 2 days later demonstrated

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

Tacrolimus is a widely used macrolide immunosuppressant in transplant surgery, with mild and major neurologic side effects. A 21-year-old woman had undergone preemptive transplantation of a kidney from her mother. On the 1st postoperative day, the patient had headache, nausea, vomiting, and

BACKGROUND Ganglioneuroma (GN) of the adult is a rare benign tumour originating from neural crest-derived cells. In most cases, GN is found in the mediastinum or retroperitoneum incidentally and may present with unspecific symptoms caused by space-occupying effects. The correct diagnosis of a

Background: Ganglioneuromas (GNs) are extremely rare, slowly growing, benign tumors that can arise from Schwann cells, ganglion cells, and neuronal or fibrous tissues. Due to their origin from the sympathetic neural crest, they show

Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD), a disorder first described by French physicians Lhermitte and Duclos in 1920 [25], is a benign, slow growing dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum, characterized by replacement of the granule cell layer by abnormal granule and Purkinje like cells. The most

Dysplastic gangliocytoma or Lhermitte-Duclos disease is a rare disorder characterized by a slowly progressive unilateral tumour mass of the cerebellar cortex. It is probably hamartomatous, although the exact pathogenesis remains unknown. Lhermitte-Duclos disease was recently encountered to be part

BACKGROUND Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) is caused by a rare slow-growing mass in the cerebellum. LDD generally is experienced by young adults, but also it has been encountered in the pediatric population. Lhermitte and Duclos first described cerebellar dysplastic gangliocytoma in 1920. The first
