Radiology of primary intracranial yolk-sac (endodermal sinus) tumors.
Most primary intracranial germ-cell tumors are germinomas and teratomas. Less frequent are embryonal carcinomas, choriocarcinomas, and yolk-sac (endodermal sinus) tumors in various admixtures and degrees of purity. Teilum [1] first used the term endodermal sinus tumor in 1959 to describe those tumors (whether ovarian, testicular, or extragonadal) that originate in primitive germ cells of extrae...
متن کاملConservative management of primary vaginal endodermal sinus tumor and rhabdomyosarcoma

متن کاملPrimary cerebellar endodermal sinus tumor: A case report
Endodermal sinus tumors are rare malignant germ cell tumors that usually originate from the gonads and are rarely observed extragonadally. Pure primary endodermal sinus tumors of the cerebellar hemisphere are extremely rare and patients diagnosed with the disease often have a poor prognosis. The symptoms of YSTs are unspecific and associated with the location of tumors. Intracranial YSTs (such ...
متن کاملIntracranial metastases: therapeutic options.
Metastatic spread of tumour cells detached from systemic tumours into the central nervous system occurs hematogenously since lymphatic drainage is absent in the brain. Little is known about the precise mechanisms of tumour cell attachment in the brain and local progression of micrometastasis into clinically symptomatic tumours or into lesions visible on modern imaging techniques, such as magnet...
متن کاملHepatic and skeletal metastases from primary intracranial atypical meningioma.
Meningioma constitutes 27% of primary CNS tumours. It rarely metastasizes to distant sites (< 0.1%). Here, we present a case report of primary atypical intracranial meningioma metastasizing to liver and bone after 4 years of surgery and postoperative radiotherapy presenting with multiple episodes of hypoglycemia.
