Primary Intracranial Fibrosarcoma Presenting with Hemorrhage

چکیده
Primary intracranial fibrosarcomas (PIFs) are extremely rare and the origin of these tumors is still controversial. The rarity of primary intracranial fibrosarcomas makes it difficult to diagnose them correctly and establish a standard treatment. The pathologic diagnosis is made by distinguishing findings from light microscopic and immunohistochemistry analysis. PIFs have been known to be very aggressive neoplasms. The extra-axial location of the tumor could provide an opportunity to perform a total resection even if it does not mean a cure. We present a case of PIFs mimicking a falx meningioma in a 17-year-old man.

Primary intracerebral fibrosarcoma with intraventricular hemorrhage: a case report and literature review
Primary intracerebral fibrosarcomas are rare tumors of mesenchymal origin in the central nervous system (CNS). Fibrosarcoma presenting with spontaneous hemorrhage in the ventricles and without ventricle seeding has not been described in primary cerebral fibrosarcoma. We report the case of a 29-year-old male presenting with spontaneous hemorrhage of a fibrosarcoma that bled into the ventricles. ...

متن کاملThe Experimental Study of Increased ICP on Cerebral Hemorrhage Rabbits with Magnetic Induction Phase Shift Method
Introduction Measuring magnetic induction phase shift (MIPS) changes as a function of cerebral hemorrhage volume has the potential for being a simple method for primary and non-contact detection of the occurrence and progress of cerebral hemorrhage. Our previous MIPS study showed that the intracranial pressure (ICP) was used as a contrast index and found the primary correlation between MIPS and...
