Comparison of MRI findings of hypothalamic-optic chiasmatic gliomas and craniopharyngiomas.
BACKGROUND
Differential diagnosis of hypothalamic-optic chiasmatic gliomas (HOCGs) and craniopharyngiomas on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be quite challenging.
PURPOSE
To compare the MRI features of HOCGs and cranipharyngiomas.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Patients diagnosed with HOCG or craniopharyngioma in histopathological evaluation between 2012 and 2022 and who underwent preoperative contrast-enhanced brain MRI were included. Various MRI features were retrospectively evaluated for each lesion: T2-weighted imaging and fluid attenuation inversion recovery hyperintensity, calcification, cystic change, T1-weighted (T1W) imaging hyperintensity of the cystic component, hemorrhage, involvement of sellar, suprasellar or other adjacent structures, lobulated appearance, presence of hydrocephalus, and contrast enhancement pattern. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were also evaluated and compared.
RESULTS
Among 38 patients included, 13 (34%) had HOCG and 25 (66%) had craniopharyngioma. Craniopharyngiomas had a significantly higher rate of cystic changes, calcification, and T1W imaging hyperintensity of the cystic component than HOCGs (P <0.05). Of HOCGs, 92% had chiasm involvement, 23% had optic nerve involvement, and 31% had brain stem involvement. On the other hand, chiasm involvement was observed in 8% of craniopharyngiomas, but none had optic nerve and/or brain stem involvement (P <0.05). While 62% (8/13) of HOCGs had diffuse homogeneous enhancement, 80% (20/25) of craniopharyngiomas had a diffuse heterogeneous enhancement pattern. Mean ADC values were significantly higher in craniopharyngiomas compared to HOCGs (2.1 vs. 1.6 ×10-3mm2/s, P <0.05).
CONCLUSION
Although some neuroimaging findings may overlap, features such as presence of cyst and calcification, brain stem and optic pathway involvement, different enhancement patterns, and ADC values may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of HOCGs and craniopharyngiomas.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
