颅内孤立性纤维瘤:T2WI之“阴阳”表现

The Yin and Yang of Solitary Fibrous Tumor

An axial T2-weighted magnetic resonance image (top left) reveals a mixed hypo- and hyperintense extraaxial dura-based tumor exerting mass effect on the adjacent right temporal lobe, and a corresponding photomicrograph (original magnifcation, ×40; hematoxylin-eosin stain) (top right) shows dense spindle cell proliferation separated by collagen strips. The yin-yang concept (bottom right) is suggested by lesions with hypocellular (hypointense) and hypercellular (hyperintense) areas.

孤立性纤维瘤之“阴与阳”

  • 左上图:颅脑MR轴位T2WI示右侧脑外硬脑膜肿瘤呈高低混杂信号,有占位效应,右颞叶受压;

  • 右上图:镜下(HE×40)示密集的梭形细胞增生,被条带状的胶原纤维分隔;

  • 右下图:所谓“阴阳”概念,指病变由富细胞区及少细胞区组成,前者在T2WI上呈高信号,后者呈低信号。

T2WI:左额部脑外肿瘤,信号不均,内见混杂的较高或略低信号区,另见较多低信号的流空血管影。(来源链接:男33岁,右侧肢体进行性无力

轴位T2WI:小脑幕脑外肿瘤,信号不均,以略低信号为主,可见小囊变区。(来源链接:硬脑膜孤立性纤维瘤(血管外皮细胞瘤)
