We report a case of a VHL patient with histologically proven residual ELST who underwent Ga DOTATATE PET/CT showing increased activity (SUVmax, 6.29) by the ELST. Clin Nucl Med 41(10):783-4 (PMID: 27454593) [2] Jegannathan D, Kathirvelu G, Mahalingam A (2016) Three sporadic cases of endolymphatic sac tumor. 1. erosion of petrous bone in an infiltrative or "moth-eaten" pattern 2. often intense enhancement Signal characteristics include: 1. The radiologic diagnosis of endolymphatic sac tumors. B. MR scan showed a 5.2 cm × 4.7 cm × 4.2 cm mass which was irregular, heterogeneous, and lobulated and showed hyperintensity on T1-weighted images. Endolymphatic tumors are most often associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease and are detected in 11-16% patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease 2. von Hippel-Lindau disease: genetic, clinical, and imaging features. Endolymphatic sac tumors typically present with the following symptoms and signs: These tumors are composed of two histological types: Generally, endolymphatic sac tumors always arise within the vestibular aqueduct, involving the endolymphatic sac or duct. Research paper by W W WW Lo, L J LJ Applegate, J N JN Carberry, L G LG Solti-Bohman, J W JW House, D E DE Brackmann, V V Waluch, J C JC Li Indexed on: 01 Oct '93 Published on: 01 Oct '93 Published in: Radiology Endolymphatic tumours are most often associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease and are detected in 11-16% patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease 2.

A hypervascular tumor involving the endolymphatic sac with destructive changes, it involves the bone and may show reactive new bone formation. Lonser RR, Kim HJ, Butman JA et-al. A. CT imaging demonstrated an expansile lytic lesion of the mastoid process of the left petrous bone extending to involve both the left medial mastoid as well as the middle ear. Endolymphatic sac tumours typically present with the following symptoms and signs: These tumours are composed of two histological types: Generally, endolymphatic sac tumours always arise within the vestibular aqueduct, involving the endolymphatic sac or duct. Related pathology Preoperative radiotherapy may be effective to reduce the devastating intraoperative bleeding of ELST. superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, posterior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, lateral semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, erosion of petrous bone in an infiltrative or "moth-eaten" pattern, central calcific spiculation and posterior rim calcification, center of the lesion will be at the jugular bulb rather than the vestibular aqueduct, expansion of aqueduct, with smooth margins, bone around the aqueduct is not usually aerated. The patient went on to have resection. Early detection of these tumors is critical, because early surgical intervention may prevent further hearing loss. Most papillary ELSTs are seen only sporadically,but cases with von Hippel-Lindau disease have a higher risk of papillary ELST development than the normal population. An endolymphatic sac tumor (ELST) is a very uncommon papillary epithelial neoplasm arising within the endolymphatic sac or endolymphatic duct. This case has a small tumor that is intrinsically T1 and T2 hyperintense. Tumors of the endolymphatic sac in von Hippel-Lindau disease. superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, posterior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, lateral semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, erosion of petrous bone in an infiltrative or "moth-eaten" pattern, central calcific spiculation and posterior rim calcification, centre of the lesion will be at the jugular bulb rather than the vestibular aqueduct, expansion of aqueduct, with smooth margins, bone around the aqueduct is not usually aerated. (1989) Cancer. Typically endolymphatic sac tumors are encountered in young individuals, with a mean age at onset is 22 years 2. 21 (4): 391-4. The distal end is dilated forming the endolymphatic sac, which protrudes beneath the dura of the posterior surface of the petrous temporal bone near the sigmoid sinus. Endolymphatic sac tumor is an uncommon, locally aggressive tumor. Early detection of these tumors is critical, because early surgical intervention may prevent further hearing loss. Tumors of the endolymphatic sac are locally invasive neoplasms arising in the temporal bone that can cause hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, aural fullness, and facial-nerve dysfunction. Lonser RR, Kim HJ, Butman JA et-al. Some contain calcific deposits and psammoma bodies. The purpose of this study is to describe the clinical and radiologic features, and investigate the clinicoradiologic correlation of ELST. 2004;350 (24): 2481-6. T1:may show high-intensity 2. Their radiologic studies were reviewed for characteristic findings of ELST. T1:may show high-intensity 2. The earlier two surgeries resulted in only partial removal of the tumor because of vigorous intraoperative bleeding. 1. Choyke PL, Glenn GM, Walther MM et-al. We will discuss them because their CT appearance is very typical. Typically endolymphatic sac tumours are encountered in young individuals, with a mean age at onset is 22 years 2.
