Neurocutaneous syndromes and retroperitoneal tumors.

چکیده
A patient with multiple basal cell carcinoma syndrome, a symptom complex characteristized by nevoid basal cell carcinomas of the skin, jaw cysts, skeletal abnormalities, and hyporesponsiveness to parathormone is presented. In addition, the patient had a retroperitoneal lymphagiomyoma, a hamartomatous lesion, causing ureteral obstruction. The association of neuroectodermic syndromes and retroperitoneal and intra-abdominal tumors is reviewed.

Intramedullary and Retroperitoneal Melanocytic Tumor Associated With Congenital Blue Nevus and Nevus Flammeus: An Uncommon Combination of Neurocutaneous Melanosis and Phacomatosis Pigmentovascularis—Case Report
Neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM) is a rare condition characterized by central nervous system melanocytic tumors associated with congenital melanocytic nevi. Phacomatosis pigmentovascularis (PPV) is an association of vascular nevus with pigmentary nevus. Aberrant maturation of neural crest-derived cells is considered to be related to pathogenesis in both conditions. However, association of NCM and...

Neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM) is a rare neuroectodermal dysplasia characterized by large or multiple cutaneous congenital pigmented nevi and benign or malignant melanocytic tumors of the leptomeninges. Although the MR manifestations of this disease have been reported in a small series of cases, the usefulness of fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MR findings has not been documented. W...

متن کاملEmbryology of the neural crest: its inductive role in the neurocutaneous syndromes.
Neural crest cells are first recognized at the lateral margin of the neural placode shortly after gastrulation, although they are not committed to their diverse fates until later. After dorsal closure of the neural tube, neural crest cells separate and migrate throughout the embryo to form many structures of ectodermal origin (eg, dorsal root and autonomic ganglia, peripheral nerve sheaths) and...
