Identification of BRAF V600E Mutation in Cerebrospinal Fluid Aids in Diagnosing Leptomeningeal Carcinomatosis Arising From Pleomorphic Xanthoastrocytoma: A Case Report

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas (PXAs) are rare primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors that appear heterogeneous on imaging and histology and typically cause headaches or seizures on initial presentation. Alongside high rates of favorable prognosis after surgical excision exist similarly high rates of recurrence.

Association between fetal brain diffusion‐weighted imaging and postnatal neurodevelopmental outcome after prenatal myelomeningocele repair

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 329-340, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Myelomeningocele (MMC) is associated with significant alterations of the brain microstructure, which can impair long‐term neurodevelopmental outcomes. By measuring the random displacement of water molecules within the brain, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) can provide objective metrics, such as
