Primary intracranial myxoma of the parietal region. Illustrated case report.

Abstract:

:An extremely rare case of primary intracranial myxoma mimicking an intraaxial parenchymal tumour is reported. A 25 year old male presented with complaints of headache and right sided hemiparesis. A gross total resection of the tumour was achieved. Histology confirmed that the tumour was a myxoma. Investigations did not reveal any underlying cardiac focus. Following surgery, the patient had rapid recovery from his symptoms and on a follow up at 3 months was asymptomatic. Primary intracranial myxomas are extremely rare and this is the fifth reported case in neurosurgical literature and third report of supratentorial myxoma. Though metastatic myxomas from atrial myxomas are known to occur primary intracranial myxomas are extremely rare. Surgical resection provides an excellent prognosis and the surgical aim should be to achieve total resection.
