Objectives: The aim was to model residual Vestibular Schwannoma (VS) over time to identify prognostic factors of postsurgical growth.
Study Design: Multicenter retrospective study.
Setting: Tertiary referral centers.
Background And Purpose: To determine the diagnostic value of bright spotty lesions (BSLs) for aquaporin-4 antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), the predictive value of axial-BSLs for AQP4-IgG seropositivity, and the radio-clinical differences in NMOSD patients with and without axial-BSLs.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective study that included patients aged≥16 years, with a first acute spinal cord syndrome between 2005 and 2018 and abnormal spinal cord MRI with axial and sagittal T2 sequences. Patients with MRI findings consistent with compressive myelopathy were excluded.
Background: Liponeurocytoma is a very rare tumor classified as grade II (neuronal and mixed neuronal-glial tumors) according to 2016 World Health Organization classification of tumors of the central nervous system. The median age at detection is 50 years, and the most frequent location is the posterior cranial fossa, especially within the cerebellar hemispheres; liponeurocytomas arising in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) are exceptional.
Case Description: Here we report the clinical, radiological, and pathological characteristics of a CPA liponeurocytoma in a 35-year-old woman, as well as a review of the literature.
