摘要
目的:探讨MRI诊断成人髓母细胞瘤的价值。材料和方法:回顾性分析25例经病理证实的成人髓母细胞瘤的MRI表现。结果:25例中,位于小脑半球11例、第四脑室9例、小脑上蚓2例和第四脑室顶部3例。肿瘤直径3~7cm。18例形态不规则,7例呈类圆形,所有肿瘤均有不同程度的囊变、坏死。增强扫描肿瘤实质部分明显增强8例,中度增强5例,轻度增强8例,未见增强4例。轻度脑积水10例,中度脑积水8例,重度脑积水7例。结论:成人髓母细胞瘤的MRI表现具有一定特点,结合发病部位仔细分析影像征象,大部分病例可诊断。
Purpose: To explore the value of MRI on the diagnosis of medulloblastoma in adults. Materials and Methods: MRI findings of 25 patients with pathologicall proved medulloblastoma were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Among the 25 cases of medulloblastomas, 11 located in cerebellar hemispheres, 9 in the fourth ventricle, 2 in eerebellar vermis and 3 in top of the fourth ventricle. The lesions were irregular in 18 cases and oval in 7 cases, with diameter from 3 to 7 cm. The cystic components or necrosis were seen in all 25 cases. The solid part of lesions were enhanced at different extent, with 8 marked enhancement,5 moderate enhancement, 8 slight enhancement. Among the 25 cases, slight hydrocephalus was found in 10 patients, moderate hydrocephalus in 8 patients, and severe hydrocephalus in 7 patients. Condusion: Medulloblastoma in adult has some eharicteristic MR features. Most cases can be diagnosed correctly by analyzing MR images combined with lesions position.
