Abstract

Germinomas frequently cause hydrocephalus, and ventriculoperitoneal shunts (VPS) have been commonly used for their management. Although VPS can potentially serve as a route for peritoneal dissemination of germinomas, the abdominal imaging characteristics of this rare yet important complication remain unknown. In this article, we report the computed tomography imaging findings of diffuse peritoneal dissemination of intracranial germinoma.

经脑室腹腔分流的颅内纯种生殖细胞瘤腹膜弥漫性播散。

胚芽瘤经常导致脑积水，而脑室腹腔分流术（VPS）是治疗脑积水的常用方法。虽然 VPS 有可能成为胚芽瘤腹膜播散的途径，但这种罕见但重要的并发症的腹部成像特征仍不为人知。本文报告了颅内胚芽瘤弥漫性腹膜播散的计算机断层扫描成像结果。

期刊介绍： Neuroradiology aims to provide state-of-the-art medical and scientific information in the fields of Neuroradiology, Neurosciences, Neurology, Psychiatry, Neurosurgery, and related medical specialities. Neuroradiology as the official Journal of the European Society of Neuroradiology receives submissions from all parts of the world and publishes peer-reviewed original research, comprehensive reviews, educational papers, opinion papers, and short reports on exceptional clinical observations and new technical developments in the field of Neuroimaging and Neurointervention. The journal has subsections for Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Advanced Neuroimaging, Paediatric Neuroradiology, Head-Neck-ENT Radiology, Spine Neuroradiology, and for submissions from Japan. Neuroradiology aims to provide new knowledge about and insights into the function and pathology of the human nervous system that may help to better diagnose and treat nervous system diseases. Neuroradiology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and follows the COPE core practices. Neuroradiology prefers articles that are free of bias, self-critical regarding limitations, transparent and clear in describing study participants, methods, and statistics, and short in presenting results. Before peer-review all submissions are automatically checked by iThenticate to assess for potential overlap in prior publication.
