Abstract

We report the case of a 63-year-old man with a midline posterior fossa tumor and peculiar imaging features where we were unsure of the nature of the lesion preoperatively. Histopathology revealed it to be a craniopharyngioma. It appeared to arise from the inferior medullary velum, a site not described before in the literature. The previous four cases mentioned in literature and speculations on the origins in this uncommon site are discussed.

后窝颅咽管瘤源自髓质下静脉。

我们报告了一例 63 岁男子的病例，他患有中线后窝肿瘤，且影像学特征奇特，术前我们无法确定病变的性质。组织病理学检查显示这是一个颅咽管瘤。肿瘤似乎来自下髓绒毛，而这一部位在文献中从未描述过。本文讨论了文献中提到的前四例病例以及对这一不常见部位起源的推测。
