Issue Date: | 7-Jun-2014 | Publication information: | Journal of Clinical Neuroscience 2014; 21(11): 1990-3 | Abstract: | We report a 44-year-old with progressive quadriparesis due to a dumbbell malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour (MPNST) of the second cervical nerve, 17 years after whole brain radiotherapy for a pineal germinoma. To our knowledge this is the first case of radiation induced high cervical MPNST arising from a benign neurofibroma. | Gov't Doc #: | 24913930 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/12253 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jocn.2014.02.017 | Journal: | Journal of Clinical Neuroscience | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24913930 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Cervical nerve Dumbbell tumour Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour Nerve sheath tumour Radiation therapy |
