Neurenteric Cyst of the Area Postrema
Neurenteric cysts are CNS lesions most frequently occurring in the spinal cord. Intracranial neurenteric cysts are rarer, typically presenting with headache, mass effect, or location-specific symptoms. The area postrema is known as the emetic center of the brain; lesions can cause nausea and vomiting. Our case, featuring a neurenteric cyst of the area postrema, illustrates the importance of con...
متن کاملIntraparenchymal supratentorial neurenteric cyst.
BACKGROUND Neurenteric cysts are congenital cysts of the central nervous system that are believed to be of endodermal origin. In this report we present the unique case of a supratentorial neurenteric cyst that is contained entirely within the brain parenchyma. METHODS A patient presented with an intraparenchymal cystic lesion that was subsequently identified as a neurenteric cyst. This lesion...
متن کاملUnique Imaging Features of Spinal Neurenteric Cyst
A 50-year-old male presented with acutely progressed paraplegia. His magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated two well-demarcated components with opposite signals in one cystic lesion between the T1- and T2-weighted images at the T1 spine level. The patient showed immediately improved neurological symptoms after surgical intervention and the histopathological exam was compatible with a neurenter...
متن کاملMR imaging characteristics of a neurenteric cyst.
A 34-year-old man presented with a 2-year history of progressive bilateral leg weakness , paresthesias, and gait incoordination. Of later onset was nocturnal enuresis. On admission to the medical center, a cystometrogram revealed spastic neurogenic bladder. Physical examination demonstrated symmetrical patchy areas of decreased pinprick sensation below the T4 level. Four beats of clonus were el...
متن کاملNeurenteric Cyst or Neuroendodermal Cyst? Immunohistochemical Study and Pathogenesis.
BACKGROUND Neurenteric cysts are rare central nervous system lesions derived from an endodermal origin. There is no consensus concerning pathogenesis because of the paucity of occurrences. We report an immunohistochemical study of 10 cases with neurenteric cysts and postulate its pathogenesis. METHODS Ten patients underwent surgical treatment for neurenteric cysts from 1995 to 2015. We retros...
