Rare case of intramedullary spinal Neurosarcoidosis in this 60 y/o M

Intramedullary spinal tumors Ddx:

1️⃣Ependymoma
2️⃣Astrocytoma (especially in kids)
3️⃣hemangioblastoma (especially in VHL)
4️⃣Mets are rare though lung is most common in setting of widespread disease

⁉️Does #neurosarcoidosis involve the trigeminal nerve?

Absolutely❗️

Emory Neurology Residency resident Dr. Avi Gandh explains in a recent poster:
🔹5.7% radiographically
🔹2.0% clinically symptomatic
🔹Cisternal trigeminal nerve, Meckel’s cave, and cavernous sinus most commonly affected

Brush signは血栓回収後の梗塞拡大を予測

✅T2*/SWIでの上衣下〜髄質静脈の異常可視化*
✅説: 重度の脱酸素化を反映

👉ベースラインMRIでBrush sign陽性だと血栓回収後も梗塞域が拡大しやすい

✅なおNeurosarcoidosisでもSWIで類似所見が見られる‡

Engorgement of Deep Medullary Veins in Neurosarcoidosis (NS)
is a frequent manifestation of NS.
It does not appear to be secondary to venous thrombosis in most patients and could be an indirect effect of venous and perivenous inflammation resulting in increased venous impedance.

Deep medullary vein engorgement was common in neurosarcoidosis.
Although its pathophysiology remains uncertain, it could be related to venous or perivenous abnormalities and may represent a useful secondary finding of cerebrovascular disease.
