Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of primary intracranial tumors of multiple cellular origins. Methods The clinical data including the clinical manifestations, imaging findings, and treatment of 8 patients with primary intracranial tumors of multiple cellular origins were retrospectively analyzed, and the possible mechanism of these tumors were explored. Results A total of 16 primary intraeranial tumors were found in the 8 patients, including intraeranial meningioma (8 tumors), pituitary adenoma (3 tumors), schwannoma (2 tumors), and glioma (2 tumors). The tumors were resected in a single operation in 5 cases, and in two surgical sessions in 3 cases. Twelve tumors were radically resected, 3 were subtotally resected, and 1 was partially resected. Conclusion MR is an important diagnostic modality for primary intraeranial tumors of multiple cellular origins. Tumor resection in one or staged operations combined with radiotherapy or chemotherapy is the primary treatment option for these tumors.
