Spinal ependymoma in adults: from molecular advances to new treatment perspectives

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Ependymomas are rare glial tumors with clinical and biological heterogeneity, categorized into supratentorial ependymoma, posterior fossa ependymoma, and spinal cord ependymoma, according to anatomical localization.

Measurement of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) Values of Ependymoma and Medulloblastoma Tumors: a Patient-based Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2021
Background: Some brain tumors such as ependymoma and Medulloblastoma have similar MR images which may result to undifferentiated them from each other.

Extramedullary tanycytic ependymoma of the lumbar spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yesYeungnam University Journal of Medicine, 2020
Tanycytic ependymoma is a rare variant of ependymoma that commonly affects the cervical and thoracic spinal cord. It usually arises as intramedullary lesions, and extramedullary cases are extremely rare.

Ependymomas

open access: yesPathologica, 2022
Ependymal neoplasms are a heterogenous group of neoplasms arising from the progenitors of the cells lining the ventricular system and the spinal central canal. During the last few years, significant novel data concerning oncogenesis, molecular characteristics and clinical correlations of these tumours have been collected, with a strong relevance for ...

Intradural extramedullary tanycytic ependymoma of the cervical spine: A case report

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2021
Intramedullary ependymoma represent one of the two most common intramedullary spine tumors. While occurrence of spinal ependymoma extramedullary is very rare, especially the tanycytic subtype.

Intramedullary Spinal Ependymoma with Signet Ring Cell/Adipocytic Morphology- A Rare Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2022
Ependymoma is neuroepithelial tumour with ependymal differentiation that most commonly has ventricular involvement and arises in the cerebrum and spinal cord. It has bimodal age distribution. Incidence rate highest in infant less than one year and second

Redefining germline predisposition in children with molecularly characterized ependymoma: a population-based 20-year cohort

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
Ependymoma is the second most common malignant brain tumor in children. The etiology is largely unknown and germline DNA sequencing studies focusing on childhood ependymoma are limited.

Primary cerebellar myxopapillary ependymoma: Case report

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2022
Myxopapillary ependymomas are a variant of ependymoma located almost exclusively in the conus medullaris-cauda equina-filum terminale region of the spinal cord. Intracranial myxopapillary ependymomas are rare, occurring either through cerebrospinal fluid
