  • A metastatic Skull Tumor from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: A case report and literature review.
    Medicine, 2019
    Co-Authors: Dawei Wang, Liang Chu, Qing Chao, Qiujian Zhang, Hansheng Shu
    Abstract:

    Rationale Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) originates from the epithelial cells of the secondary branches that are distant from the intrahepatic bile duct. ICC is a rare pathological type of primary liver cancer, with a high malignancy rate and poor prognosis. However, patients with ICC metastasis to the Skull are extremely rarely encountered. Herein, we present a case of a metastatic Skull Tumor from ICC, along with a literature review. Patient concerns A 50-year-old right-handed man who did not smoke was diagnosed with a poorly differentiated ICC (T2aN0M0) in segment VI of the liver in February 2017. Hepatectomy was performed. The patient then presented with a painful mass in the posterior occipital region with dizziness experienced since 1 month, for which he underwent posterior occipital craniotomy. Postoperative specimens were sent for pathological examination. Diagnoses We diagnosed the patient with a metastatic Skull Tumor from ICC. Interventions The patient underwent posterior occipital craniotomy and total resection of the Tumor. Outcomes The patient received chemotherapy 1 month after surgery, and after 6 months of follow-up, the patient was alive. Lessons ICC often shows metastases to the vertebrae. Therefore, physicians should consider the possibility of metastasis in patients with ICC, especially in those who show a painful Skull mass of unknown origin; moreover, among patients with vertebral metastasis, physicians should be very vigilant about an occipital mass. We believe that the craniospinal venous system may be the pathway for occipital metastasis in patients with ICC.

  • The Evaluation of 16 slice Spiral CT Angiography in Meningioma
    Journal of Clinical Radiology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Li Yangbin
    Abstract:

    Objective To discuss the clinical value of 16 slice spiral CT angiography (MSCTA) in the diagnosis of intracranial meningioma. Materials and Method MSCTA was performed in 35 cases of intracranial meningioma, three dimentional reconstruction ways included MPR, SSD, MIP, VRT and CTVE. Results In 35 MSCTA cases, the Skull, Tumor and blood vessels were simultaneously depicted in in meningioma, and relationship between vessels, cranial bone and Tumors was also demonstrated. Conclusion MSCTA can show the correlations of Tumor,blood vessel and the peripheral constructions,it is useful to diagnose meningioma,choose the treatment programs and predict risk and outcomes in operation.

  • Large Osteolytic Skull Tumor Presenting as a Small Subcutaneous Scalp Lesion
    Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine : JABFM, 2011
    Co-Authors: John E. Sutherland, Nader S. Dahdaleh, Jeremy D.w. Greenlee, Patricia A. Kirby, Michael D. Sargent
    Abstract:

    Subcutaneous nodules of the scalp are common and usually benign. We describe a case that presented as a probable inclusion cyst or lipoma of the scalp that was discovered to be a benign osteolytic fibrohistiocytic lesion of the frontoparietal Skull. This ultimately was successfully treated by neurosurgery with a craniectomy, Tumor excision, and reconstructive cranioplasty.

  • Diagnostic Research on Intracranial Meningioma with Spiral CT Angiography (CTA)
    Tianjing Medical Journal, 2002
    Co-Authors: Liu Meili
    Abstract:

    Objective: To explore a new inspection method for the diagnosis of intracranial meningioma, and to expand the use of CTA. Methods: Improved examinations of CTA were performed in 56 patients with intracranial meningioma. The method of CTA perfusion with one-way an monocircuit for one time retardation changed to one-way and dualcircuit for two times retardation. All data were analyzed with the software of maximum intensity projection (MIP), shaded surface display (SSD), and multiplanner reconstruction (MPR). Results: The Skull, Tumor, and blood vessels were simultaneously present in spiral CT angiography in meningioma with rich blood supply. The blood vessel reconstruction showed a clear meningioma dyeing and relation between meningioma and its peripheral blood vessel. The Skull reconstruction showed the influence of meningioma on the Skull. Conclusion: CTA provides a practical value in the diagnosis of intracranial meningioma in qualitative, location, size, and blood supply. It can also offer the preoperative imaging data to neurosurgeon.
