Jugular foramen tumours.
Tumours of the jugular foramen are rare and much less common than the acoustic neuromas. Glomusjugulare is the commonest type of tumour at this site while other tumours include Schwannomas, meningiomas, epidermoids, metastatic carcinomas, chordoinas and osteoclastomas. A case of ectopic glioma was reported in 1976. Neunnomas have a marked predilection for young females and occur most frequently...
متن کاملIntradural jugular foramen tumors.
Eleven patients with jugular foramen lesions with or without extradural extension were operated at University Hospital of Campinas (UNICAMP), in Campinas, Brazil, between 1998 and 2001. Neck dissection, mastoidectomy without transposition of the facial nerve and myofascial flap reconstruction of the cranial base with an especially developed technique were carried out in 7 patients. Four patient...
متن کاملJugular Foramen Tumors
Jugular foramen tumors are rare cranial base lesions that present diagnostic and management difficulties. Paragangliomas were the most frequent lesions, followed by schwannomas and meningiomas. These tumors have characteristic radiological features. Radical resection of these tumors with preservation of the lower cranial nerves is the treatment of choice. Despite the advances in skull base surg...
متن کاملSurgical anatomy of the jugular foramen.
The jugular foramen (JF) is a canal that makes communication between the posterior cranial fossa and the upper neck for one third of the cranial nerves and for the main venous channel of the brain. From a lateral view, the JF is protected by multiple layers of muscles and by the outer surface of the petrous bone. Surgical exposure of the JF is usually justified by the removal of benign tumors t...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of the jugular foramen.
The jugular foramen in normal volunteers was studied with 1.5 T magnetic resonance (MR) systems in 3-mm-thick head- and surface-coil images. Anatomic sections through cadaver heads were correlated with the MR images to identify the jugular bulb and the course of cranial nerves IX-XI. Sagittal images were more useful than coronal or axial to show the course of these nerves through the skull base...
