“…We compiled data on reported cases of MTT in the recent 6 years (2018–2023, Table 1). 1,6–38 There were totally 37 cases with a mean age of 39.4 years (range 8 months old–75 years old), including 24 male and 13 female patients. Eleven cases originated in the abdomen (30%), 10 cases in the head and neck (27%), 8 cases in the thoracic cavity (21%), 6 cases in the limbs (16%), 1 case in the spine (3%), and 1 case in the buttocks (3%).…”

Malignant triton tumor (MTT) is a highly aggressive malignant neoplasm, classified as a variant of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation. There are few reports that MTT occurred in urogenital system. In the present study, we report the first MTT occurring in the uterus. A 57‐year‐old woman came to the emergency department due to persistent vaginal bleeding for 2 months. The gynecological palpation found that a club‐shaped excrescence existed in the vagina about 7 cm × 3 cm × 3 cm. The mass located in the lower segment of the uterus and the cervix was confirmed by gynecological vaginal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging, which was preliminarily diagnosed as cervical carcinoma. After neoplasm punch biopsy, the pathological diagnosis was malignant triton tumor. The patient finally lost follow‐up. This is the first report about MTT in the uterus and suggests that pathological biopsy combined with imaging examination is necessary for the diagnosis of rarely MTT.

Background Endovascular embolization of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) has emerged as an adjunctive and stand-alone modality for the management of chronic subdural hematomas (cSDH). We report our experience utilizing proximal MMA coil embolization to augment cSDH devascularization in MMA embolization. Methods MMA embolization cases with adjunctive proximal MMA coiling were retrospectively identified from a prospectively maintained IRB-approved database of the senior authors. Results Of the 137 cases, all patients (n = 89, 100%) were symptomatic and underwent an MMA embolization procedure for cSDH. 50 of the patients underwent bilateral embolizations, with 53% (n = 72) for left-sided and 47% (n = 65) for right-sided cSDH. The anterior MMA branch was embolized in 19 (14%), posterior in 16 (12%), and both in 102 (74.5%) cases. Penetration of the liquid embolic to the contralateral MMA or into the falx was present in 38 (28%) and 31 (23%) cases, respectively, and 46 (34%) cases had ophthalmic or petrous collateral (n = 41, 30%) branches. MMA branches coiled include the primary trunk (25.5%, n = 35), primary and anterior or posterior MMA trunks (20%, n = 28), or primary with the anterior and posterior trunks (54%, n = 74). A mild ipsilateral facial nerve palsy was reported, which remained stable at discharge and follow-up. Absence of anterograde flow in the MMA occurred in 137 (100%) cases, and no cases required periprocedural rescue surgery for cSDH evacuation. The average follow-up length was 170 ± 17.9 days, cSDH was reduced by 4.24 ± 0.5(mm) and the midline shift by 1.46 ± 0.27(mm). Complete resolution was achieved in 63 (46.0%) cases. Conclusion Proximal MMA coil embolization is a safe technique for providing additional embolization/occlusion of the MMA in cSDH embolization procedures. Further studies are needed to evaluate the potential added efficacy of this technique.
