Abstract:
:An 8-year-old boy presented with acute proptosis of the right eye. Examination revealed 8 mm of exophthalmos, limitation of upward gaze, optic disc swelling, and normal visual acuity, but an inferonasal quadrantic visual field defect. Orbital ultrasound and computed tomographic scanning demonstrated a superotemporal tumor of the right orbit with intracranial extension. At operation, this proved to be a "reparative" giant cell granuloma. After partial resection, the remaining mass resolved spontaneously without further specific treatment. There had been no recurrence at the 1-year follow-up examination.

NEUROSURGERY文献大全abstract:BACKGROUND:Extent of resection (EOR) correlates with glioblastoma outcomes. Resectability and EOR depend on anatomical, clinical, and surgeon factors. Resectability likely influences outcome in and of itself, but an accurate measurement of resectability remains elusive. An understanding of resectability and the factors...
