Solitary Tumefactive Demyelinating Lesions in Children

open access: yesJournal of Child Neurology, 2011
Solitary tumefactive demyelination is rare in children, and the diagnosis is often conferred after brain biopsy. The authors report 3 children with solitary tumefactive demyelination and provide clinical and paraclinical clues to aid the clinician in reaching a diagnosis using a noninvasive approach.

Pediatric Tumefactive Demyelination

2017
In children presenting with neurological deficits associated with large parenchymal lesions on imaging, brain tumors and cerebral abscess are typically considered in the differential diagnosis. However, it is important to also consider tumefactive demyelinating lesions, which can be challenging to diagnose.

Conventional and advanced magnetic resonance imaging in tumefactive demyelination

open access: yesActa Radiologica, 2011
Background Tumefactive demyelination (TD) is a relatively uncommon entity which mimics other focal intracranial lesions. Conventional radiological findings in tumefactive demyelination have been well described.

Tumefactive demyelinating lesions

Neuroradiology, 1996
We studied 21 cases of pathologically confirmed tumefactive demyelinating lesions and reviewed the spectrum of tumefactive demyelinating lesions in the literature. Radiological features and clinical data were reviewed to characterize the lesions as consistent with a known demyelinating disease, most notably multiple sclerosis.

Relapsing-Remitting Tumefactive Demyelination

JAMA Neurology, 2014
A previously healthy 26-year-old woman was seen with a progressive left-side weakness lasting 3 days. A brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan showed a right-sided mass lesion with hyperintensity in fluid-attenuated inversion recovery and T2 sequences, hypointensity in T1, heterogeneous gadolinium enhancement, and no restriction in diffusion ...

Recurrent tumefactive demyelination in a child

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2005
A 13-year-old female presented with two episodes of hemiplegia and hemianopia involving opposite sides, each time associated with seizures. On both occasions, the magnetic resonance (MR) scan showed a giant demyelinating, peripherally enhancing lesion with mass effect. MR spectroscopy (MRS) was indistinguishable from a tumor.

Tumefactive demyelinating lesions in children

European Journal of Paediatric Neurology
Tumefactive lesions (TDL) are larger than 2 cm in diameter on T2-weighted brain MRI. They are distinguished from other types of demyelinating lesions by their size and degree of perilesional edema and/or rim enhancement, which can make diagnosis challenging.To study the clinical and radiological features, follow-up and final diagnosis of patients ...

Tumefactive demyelination.

The Journal of the Association of Physicians of India, 2009
We present a case of 22 year old female who had pulmonary tuberculosis followed by tuberculous meningitis and tuberculomas in past. This time she presented to us with right hemiparesis and altered sensorium. Diagnosis of tumefactive demyelination was made on the basis of typical MRI findings. Patient showed good response to steroids.
