Metastatic Intracranial Hemangiopericytoma to the Spinal Column: A Case Report
Intracranial hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a rare brain tumor with aggressive biologic behavior associated with high recurrence rate and often with extracranial metastasis. The most common sites of extracranial metastasis of the intracranial HPC are the long bones, lung, liver and abdominal cavity in the order of frequencies. Extracranial metastases usually occur long after the initial diagnosis ...
متن کاملIntracranial meningeal hemangiopericytoma metastatic to the scapula.
Meningeal hemangiopericytomas are rare vascular tumors that have a propensity for recurrence and metastasis. Intracranial hemangiopericytomas are rare vascular tumors. They account for 0.5% of primary central nervous system tumors and 2% of meningiomas. Unlike usual benign meningiomas, which rarely metastasize extracranially, meningeal hemangiopericytoma has a high rate of local recurrence and ...
متن کاملMetastatic renal hemangiopericytoma: A rare case report
INTRODUCTION Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is an unusual perivascular tumor and first case was described by Stout and Murray in 1942 (1). Moreover, it is classified as a soft-tissue vascular tumor originating from pericytes, which occurs commonly in the extremities, pelvis, head and neck, and meninges (2,3). On the other hand, HPC is rarely encountered in urogenital system (4-6). Renal HPC is also e...
متن کاملCongenital Hemangiopericytoma: A Case Report
Hemangiopericytoma is a rare vascular tumor observed mostly in adults. It usually presents with a painless slowly enlarging mass. The infantile type with much rarer occurrence has a different course compared to adults. Very few case reports have been described in the literature with disease onset in the infancy. The first reported case of infantile hemangiopericytoma of limbs from the Middle ...
متن کاملIntracranial hemangiopericytoma: A case report and review of the literature
Intracranial hemangiopericytomas (HPCs) are rare central nervous system tumors arising from Zimmermann pericytes or mesenchymal cells. It is often difficult to distinguish these tumors from meningiomas based on clinical features and radiological findings. HPCs have been clinically detected in many of the intracranial compartments; here, we present a case with presumed meningioma that was adjace...
