Extra-adrenal myelolipoma (EAM) is a rare benign tumor composed of mature adipose and hematopoietic tissues. Its etiology remains to be elucidated and there are few case reports describing the clinical features and treatment of EAMs in the central nervous system. The present study presented our experience and practice in the clinical management of a case of EAM in the right frontal region.

Article Synopsis
  • A case study details a 44-year-old male with persistent lower back pain, where MRI identified a large tumor at L1-S4, leading to a biopsy that confirmed myxopapillary ependymoma, followed by partial tumor resection and radiation therapy due to observed metastases.
  • Despite surgery, there remains a chance of tumor recurrence, highlighting the importance of preoperative imaging to check for metastases and the need for adjuvant treatments like radiation to reduce this risk.

Purpose: Medulloepithelioma is a rare, malignant tumor that typically arises in the periventricular region of the cerebral hemispheres or the ciliary body of the eye. Even rarer still is the extracranial manifestation of medulloepithelioma with only 12 cases reported to date. Our purpose is to report a case of an intradural, extra-medullary medulloepithelioma and review the limited literature about diagnosis and treatment of this extremely rare pathology.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare [68Ga]FAPI PET/CT and [18F]FDG PET/CT imaging to detect lesions in multiple myeloma.

Methods: A total of 14 patients with multiple myeloma who underwent [68Ga]FAPI PET/CT and [18F]FDG PET/CT imaging were included in this retrospective study. SUV values of [68Ga]FAPI and [18F]FDG were compared according to lesion locations.

Tailgut cysts are rare developmental cysts arising from remnants of the embryological postnatal gut. Despite being frequently located in the presacral space, isolated cases of aberrant locations have been reported, including, perirenal, perianal, and subcutaneous sites, with only two cases of subdural tailgut cysts reported to date. The clinical course is often marked by linear growth, causing compression of the adjacent structures, however malignant transformation with carcinomatous features has been previously described.
