“…When suspecting a PCNLS, enhanced MRI is the exam of choice, but neuroimaging findings are similar with meningiomas: both tumors present with extra-axial lesions that appear isohypointense on T1-weighted MR images and diffusely enhance with gadolinium. Moreover, dural tail sign, en plaque thickening of meninges, calvarial hyperostosis, and bone erosion have been common finding in both, but underlying vasogenic edema appears most common in PDL and depending on mass size and location [1,3,10]. Cerebral convexities are the most common site of involvement, but other sites are falx, tentorium, sellar, and suprasellar regions.…”

“…Surgical total excision remains the gold standard of treatment. Because complete resection of PDL may be technically difficult due to multiple tumors and infiltrative and en plaque presentation, many adjuvant drugs were indicated: systemic or intrathecal chemotherapy with R-CHOP, high dose of methotrexate, cytarabione, and vincristine [8][9][10]. As reported in the retrospective analysis by Quinn et al, given the rarity of diagnoses and paucity of available data, an optimal treatment strategy is still under debate.…”

Primary dural lymphoma (PDL) is an extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma that accounts for less than 1% of all central nervous system lymphomas. Primary dural lymphoma grows from the dura mater, and it is often diagnosed as meningioma or acute subdural hematoma due to its radiological characteristics. Surgery is the gold standard of therapy; in many patients, PDL is relatively benign with good outcome. Authors report their experience in three patients affected by extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (PDL) mimicking a meningioma.

With the increasing availability and use of modern brain diagnostic imaging modalities, discovery of incidental meningiomas has become fairly common. This creates a dilemma among neurosurgeons as to whether these lesions should be treated. Numerous natural history studies have been published in an effort to shed light on the potential for growth of incidental meningiomas. The available data appear to suggest that these tumors can fall into 1 of 3 main growth patterns: no growth, linear growth, or exponential growth. The therapeutic strategy selected should also consider several other factors, mainly the risk of complications from an eventual surgery, the possibility of malignancies and other pathological conditions that mimic meningiomas, and the age and medical condition of the patient. The authors believe that most asymptomatic incidental meningiomas can be observed using serial imaging and clinical follow-up evaluations. Surgical interventions are typically reserved for large, symptomatic lesions and those with documented potential for significant growth.

Case Report: Diffuse Lumbar Hyperostosis Causing Vertebral Canal Stenosis in a Dog With Concurrent Multicentric T-Cell Lymphoma

A 4-year-old female spayed Bullmastiff-cross presented with a 24-h history of progressive paraparesis. Neurological examination was consistent with L4–S3 myelopathy. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), all vertebrae showed homogenously increased short tau inversion recovery (STIR) signal with strong contrast enhancement. The vertebral canal was concentrically narrowed along the length of the L5 vertebra secondary to bony proliferation of the vertebral pedicles, dorsal lamina, and vertebral body. Cytological analysis of the peripheral lymph nodes and subsequent flow cytometry was consistent with T-cell lymphoma. The dog was euthanised due to poor prognosis. Necropsy confirmed the presence of stage V multicentric T-cell lymphoma, as well as diffuse hyperostosis of the vertebral bodies. This is the first report of presumed paraneoplastic lumbar skeletal hyperostosis.
