Abstract
We report on a patient with oligodendroglioma metastatic to bone, presenting with pancytopenia and fever 10 years after initial tumor resection. Our review of the literature showed a total of 30 reported extraneural metastases, with only 19 of these being similar cases of bone metastases. These bony lesions have increased signal intensity in T2-weighted and low signal intensity on T1-weighted images, with intense homogeneous enhancement. However, on MR imaging, we were unable to find necrosis or compression deformity of the vertebrae, despite extensive metastatic disease.Entities:
