MR imaging findings of the intraspinal meningeal melanocytoma: correlation with histopathologic findings.
Our aim was to better understand and improve the accuracy of the preoperative diagnosis of intraspinal MM by a combined analysis of MR imaging and pathologic findings. All 5 patients had undergone unenhanced and contrast-enhanced MR imaging examinations. All tumor samples had immunohistochemical reactions to HMB-45, vimentin, S-100, EMA, and Leu-7 antibodies. All 5 cases were located in the int...
متن کاملPreoperative staging of rectal cancer with MR Imaging: correlation with surgical and histopathologic findings.
Rectal cancer is a common malignancy that continues to have a highly variable outcome, with local pelvic recurrence after surgical resection usually leading to incurable disease. The success of tumor excision depends largely upon accurate tumor staging and appropriate surgical technique, although the results of recent surgical trials indicate that evaluation of the involvement of the mesorectal...
متن کاملMR of spinal meningeal melanocytoma.
We report an unusual case of meningeal melanocytoma, a rare pigmented lesion of the leptomeninges, that occurred within the leptomeninges of the thoracic spinal canal. The lesion showed increased signal intensity on T1-weighted MR images relative to gray matter, was isointense with gray matter on T2-weighted images, and enhanced mildly but homogeneously after administration of contrast material.
متن کاملMR Imaging Findings of a Primary Cardiac Osteosarcoma and Its Bone Metastasis with Histopathologic Correlation
An osteosarcoma of cardiac origin is extremely rare, and a comprehensive description of MR imaging (MRI) findings of cardiac osteosarcoma and its metastasis in the femur have not been reported in the literature. We present a case of cardiac osteosarcoma in a 47-year-old woman and its metastasis to the femur, focusing on the description of MRI findings of the cardiac and metastatic bony osteosar...
متن کاملRetinal dysplasia mimicking intraocular tumor: MR imaging findings with histopathologic correlation.
We report a 6-month-old boy who presented with unilateral leukocoria, retinal detachment, and a retrolental mass in a microphthalmic eye based on retinal dysplasia with concurrent optic nerve aplasia. Dysplastic retinal tissue, a rare congenital defect, may create a clinical and radiologic picture of an intraocular mass closely resembling tumor tissue. MR imaging findings with histopathologic c...
