histiocytoma/seizures

The primary intracranial giant cell type of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (GC-MFH) is rare, and the resemblance to meningioma causes diagnostic confusion. Discrimination from meningioma bears important therapeutic and prognostic implications. We report one such case in which an extracranial

A 58-year-old female presented with a unique case of multifocal primary intracerebral malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) manifesting as partial seizure. Neuroimaging showed a mass lesion in the right frontal lobe, which was totally removed. The histological diagnosis was MFH. Follow-up

Fibrous histiocytomas are rare lesions, more commonly encountered in soft tissues and bones. They are uncommon as an intracranial lesion. Although there have been several reports about malignant fibrous histiocytomas, less is known about the benign variant of these intracranial tumors as they are

Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a tumour primarily occurring in the extremities which can very rarely occur as an isolated intracranial lesion. We report a case of a 22-year-old woman presenting with generalized seizure and visual field deficit due to an occipital mass, which

Intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumor harboring EWSR1 fusions with CREB family of genes was recently described, and it resembles the myxoid variant of angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma. We present three pediatric patients with intracranial EWSR1-rearranged myxoid mesenchymal neoplasm and provide a

Background: Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare, fibrohistiocytic, soft-tissue neoplasm. Intracranial AFH is extremely rare. Herein, we present two pediatric cases of intracranial AFH and perform a literature review on this

OBJECTIVE The Photon Radiosurgery System (PRS) is a miniature x-ray generator that can stereotactically irradiate intracranial tumors by using low-energy photons. Treatment with the PRS typically occurs in conjunction with stereotactic biopsy, thereby providing diagnosis and treatment in one

Benign fibrous histiocytomas (BFHs) are tumors with fibroblastic and histiocytic components without histological anaplasia. Intracerebral lesions are exceptional and to our knowledge a spinal location was not yet described. We describe 2 cases of BFHs of the neural axis: the first, a 22-month-old
