Meningeal presentation of an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor.

摘要

An 11-year-old boy complained of headache accompanied by vomiting, phonophobia, bilateral proptosis, neckache, hypoesthesia in the face, and decreased hearing acuity on the right side. A few days before admission, the picture was complicated by lumbar pain, walking difficulty, two episodes of tonic-clonic seizures, and diplopia. Physical and neurological examination on admission revealed neck stiffness, positive Kernig and Brudzinski signs, diplopia, and decreased muscle strength in both the lower limbs. There was no significant past medical history.
