Abstract

Intracranial lipomas are very rare tumors an incidence of approximately % 0.1 of intracranial tumours. They usually occur near the middle line, as corporis callosi, quadrigeminal and ambient cisterns, infundibuler chiasma, cerebellopontine angle and sylvian fissure, rarely in the medulla oblongata, pons, proplexus and cortical area. We may encounter with radiological imaging of this lesions in both emergency services and policlinics. Therefore, this lesions and caharacteristics must to be well known and must be approached correctly. Case: We presented two cases in this report. Firstly; a 52 year old male patient admitted to emergency service because of trauma that his cranial tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a corporis callosi lipoma and the latter; a 46 year old female patient admitted to our department because of headache that her cranial magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a lipoma in the clivus. In this report, the clinic, radiological imaging, the area they occurred, process management and differential diagnosis of intracranial lipomas were overviwed. Conclusion: The intracranial lipomas are usually asymptomatic and rare. They can detected from computer tomography and magnetic resonance imagings. The pathologies that accompany this tumours must be ascertained. Because of benign prognosis low speed of growth, the close to neurovascular structure they must not remove until compression findings are happened.

Özet

İntrakranyal yerleşimli lipomlar, tüm intracranial tümörler içinde % 0,1 gibi çok nadir oranda rastlanırlar. Genellikle orta hatta yakın yerleşim gösteren bu lezyonlar; korpus kallosumda, kuadrigeminal sisternlerdeinfundibuler kiazmatik bölgede, serebellopontin köşede ve silviyan fissured, daha nadir olarak da medulla, pons, koroid pleksus ve kortikal bölgede görülebilirler. Gerek acil servislerde gerekse günlük polikliniklerde karşımıza gelen radyolojik görüntülerde rastlanabilen bu kitlelerin tanınması ve özelliklerinin iyi bilinerek doğru yaklaşılması önemlidir. Olgu: Acil servise travma nedeniyle başvuran, bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ve Magnetik rezonans (MR) incelemelerinde korpus kollosum lipomu saptanan 52 yaşında bir erkek hasta; baş ağrısı yakınması ile gelen beyin MRında klivus yerleşimli lipom saptanan 46 yaşında bir bayan olmak üzere iki olgu sunularak intracranial lipomlarda klinik, radyolojik özellikler, yerleşim yerleri, yönetimi ve ayırıcı tanılar gözden geçirildi. Sonuç: Genellikle asemptomatik olan ve nadir görülen intracranial lipomlar BT ve MR görüntülemelerde tanınabilmektedir. Eşlik eden başka patolojilerin varlığı araştırılmalıdır. Selim seyirli olması, oldukça yavaş büyümesi, çevre nörovasküler yapılarla yakın komşuluğu nedeniyle bu kitlelerde ancak bası bulguları olması halinde dekompresyon amaçlanarak cerrahi çıkarılmaları düşünülmelidir.
