A 68-year-old man presented with a history of a right optic glioma. Eighteen months ago he underwent a lateral orbitotomy at another institution for removal of an optic nerve mass. At that time histology revealed that the tumor was an optic nerve glioma with a pilocytic pattern. No further treatment was instituted and one year after surgery he noticed that his right eye was proptotic again. Mag...
A 90-year-old woman presented with 1-year history of right-sided progressive proptosis, neovascular glaucoma, blindness, and worsening ocular pain. No funduscopic examination was possible because of a corneal opacity. Head CT scan without contrast demonstrated a heterogeneous 4.1 cm (anterior-posterior) by 1.7 cm (transverse) cylindrical mass arising in the right optic nerve and extending from ...
The tumor microenvironment is considered to play an important role in tumor formation and progression by providing both negative and positive signals that influence tumor cell growth. We and others have previously shown that brain tumor (glioma) formation in Nf1 genetically engineered mice requires a microenvironment composed of cells heterozygous for a targeted Nf1 mutation. Using NF1 as a mod...
The gene responsible for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) encodes a tumor suppressor that functions as a negative regulator of the Ras proto-oncogene. Individuals with germline mutations in NF1 are predisposed to the development of benign and malignant tumors of the peripheral and central nervous system (CNS). Children with this disease suffer a high incidence of optic gliomas, a benign but poten...
Mouse models of human cancers afford unique opportunities to evaluate novel therapies in preclinical trials. For this purpose, we analyzed three genetically engineered mouse (GEM) models of low-grade glioma resulting from either inactivation of the neurofibromatosis-1 (Nf1) tumor suppressor gene or constitutive activation of KRas in glial cells. Based on tumor proliferation, location, and penet...
CDCA7 is a copy number amplification gene that promotes tumorigenesis. However, the clinical relevance and potential mechanisms of in glioma are unclear. expression level data were obtained from Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) The Cancer (TCGA) databases, enriched genes related signaling pathways explored. Data on CDCA7-related nine marker ferroptosis retrieved protein–protein interaction (P...
BACKGROUND The coexistence of glial high grade tumors (glioblastoma, anaplastic astrocytoma) and cerebral aneurysms is common but the association with optic glioma is rare. The treatment of these associated lesions is problematic. CASE PRESENTATION A 36-year-old white woman presented to our institution with recurrent attacks of headache. Her preoperative radiological studies revealed a lesion...
We present a case of glioblastoma multiforme of the optic pathways in a 68 year old lady. Glioblastomas of the optic pathways are rare tumors; the predominant non enhancing component and the vast extent of involvement makes this a unique case. This case report further increases the database of knowledge available on the MRI characteristics of malignant optic glioma of adulthood.
