Le metastasi spinali in età pediatrica

Abstract: Parole chiave: rachide, midollo spinate, metastasi, TC, pediatria RIASSUNTO -Il rachide e il suo contenuto costituiscono in eta pediatrica sede infrequente di localizzazione metastatica di neoplasie primitive del Sistema Nervosa Centrale o di altri organi. La classificazione delle metastasi spinali si basa attualmente sulla loro localizzazione in rapporto ai diversi compartimenti interessati: si distinguono pertanto metastasi extradurali, intradurali-extramidollari e intramidollari. A partire dal 1989, anno di… Show more

However, we believe that a diffuse leptomeningeal infiltration of the thecal sac is a non-specific finding and that only histopathology may lead to a definitive diagnosis.…”
