The presence of floating neurons in a mucinous matrix, oligodendrocyte-like cells (OLCs) aligning axonal columns and vessels, immunohistochemical profile of the neoplasm in addition to the clinical and radiological manifestations of the patient led to the diagnosis of “DNT-like neoplasm of the third ventricle”.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNT)- like lesions arise in extracortical locations and behave in a benign fashion similar to that of cortical DNTs.
📊
Key Findings & Data:They usually come to attention by symptoms and signs of increased intracranial pressure rather than focal neurological impairment.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:The presence of floating neurons in a mucinous matrix, oligodendrocyte-like cells (OLCs) aligning axonal columns and vessels, immunohistochemical profile of the neoplasm in addition to the clinical and radiological manifestations of the patient led to the diagnosis of “DNT-like neoplasm of the third ventricle”.

Abstract

Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNT)- like lesions arise in extracortical locations and behave in a benign fashion similar to that of cortical DNTs. They usually come to attention by symptoms and signs of increased intracranial pressure rather than focal neurological impairment. Here we report a case of 9-year-old boy with a complaint of headache and back pain. A third ventricular mass lesion with disseminated spinal tumor was detected on his magnetic resonance imaging. The presence of floating neurons in a mucinous matrix, oligodendrocyte-like cells (OLCs) aligning axonal columns and vessels, immunohistochemical profile of the neoplasm in addition to the clinical and radiological manifestations of the patient led to the diagnosis of “DNT-like neoplasm of the third ventricle”.

Özet

Disembriyoplastik nöroepitelyal tümör (DNT)-benzeri lezyonlar ekstrakortikal olarak yerleşirler ve kortikal yerleşimli disembriyoplastik nöroepitelyal tümör'lere benzer şekilde iyi huylu olarak davranırlar. Fokal nörolojik bozukluktan ziyade daha çok artmış kafa içi basıncı belirti ve bulguları ile dikkat çekerler. Biz burada baş ağrısı ve sırt ağrısı şikayeti olan 9 yaşında erkek hastayı sunduk. Hastanın manyetik rezonans görüntülemesinde (MRG) üçüncü ventrikül içi kitle ile birlikte yaygın spinal tümör bulundu. Müsinöz matriks içinde yüzen nöronların bulunması, aksonal sütun ve damarlarda dizili oligodendrosit benzeri hücreler (OLCs), hastanın klinik ve radyolojik bulgularının yanısıra tümörün immüno histokimyasal özellikleri hastada üçüncü ventrikülün disembriyoplastik nöroepitelyal tümör - benzeri lezyonu tanısını koydurmuştur.
