Article Synopsis
  • - The report investigates the effectiveness of dynamic 18F-DOPA PET in evaluating the grading and aggressiveness of pediatric cerebral gliomas, addressing limitations of standard uptake parameters in certain types of tumors.
  • - A retrospective analysis of 15 patients assessed both static and dynamic PET parameters to predict tumor grades and survival outcomes, finding that the shape of the time activity curve (TAC) is a strong indicator of low vs. high-grade gliomas.
  • - Results showed that TAC accumulation shape was significantly associated with longer progression-free and overall survival, making it a more reliable predictor than traditional static parameters in assessing tumor severity and prognosis.

Symptoms at diagnosis are extremely different depending on several factors such as histological subtype, disease extent, and site of tumor. We report an unusual presentation describing a case of epistaxis of the posterior nasal fossa with severe hematemesis.
