Recurrent multiloculated cystic variant of Lhermitte-Duclos disease managed with cyst fenestration and Ommaya reservoir placement: illustrative case.

Journal of neurosurgery. Case lessons2026 Mar 23

Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD), or dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum, is a rare benign lesion typically characterized by slow growth and absence of cystic changes. Cyst formation in LDD is distinctly uncommon, and detailed clinical courses of such cases are rarely documented. The authors describe a case of a young male with multiloculated cystic LDD in the right cerebellar hemisphere. The lesion recurred with progressive cyst enlargement, ultimately causing brainstem compression. Despite multiple resections and fenestrations, histopathological analysis consistently revealed characteristic features of LDD, including thickened cerebellar folia with reduced Purkinje and granular cells, dysplastic neurons, and a very low Ki-67 index (≤ 1%). Final management, including cyst fenestration and placement of an Ommaya reservoir, successfully restored CSF communication, preventing further enlargement and stabilizing neurological symptoms. Although LDD generally follows a benign course, multiloculated cystic variants can present with progressive recurrence and neurological deterioration. This case emphasizes the importance of recognizing cystic changes in LDD and demonstrates that adequate fenestration with communication to cisternal spaces, supplemented by Ommaya reservoir placement when necessary, can provide durable disease control. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25907.

Cowden Syndrome: Imaging Review and Cancer Surveillance.

Radiographics : a review publication of the Radiological Society of North America, Inc2026 Mar

Cowden syndrome (CS) is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited variant of PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog gene) hamartoma tumor syndrome caused by mutations to the PTEN tumor suppressor gene, leading to activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR intracellular signaling pathway. Patients with this syndrome present with multisystem hamartomatous lesions and are particularly predisposed to developing malignancies, including breast, thyroid, renal, endometrial, and colorectal malignancies. Mucocutaneous lesions, especially trichilemmomas, and macrocephaly are commonly seen in the 2nd decade of life and usually manifest before the development of malignancies. In children, clinical manifestations such as intellectual disability and gastrointestinal polyps may arise and may prompt early investigation and diagnosis. Major features of CS include Lhermitte-Duclos disease, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, thyroid carcinoma, macrocephaly, and gastrointestinal hamartomas. Other features that are considered part of the minor clinical diagnostic criteria include colorectal cancer, esophageal glycogenic acanthosis, lipomas, renal cell carcinoma, testicular lipomatosis, and vascular anomalies. Comprehensive evaluation including clinical and genetic assessment and imaging is essential for early diagnosis and management. Given the increased risk of developing malignancies, surveillance strategies have been routinely updated and recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network. Important cancer surveillance imaging strategies include mammography, MRI of the breast, and US of the thyroid and kidneys, although other manifestations are routinely assessed with CT and MRI. In this article, the genetics and molecular pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, imaging features, and most up-to-date surveillance recommendations of CS are reviewed. ©RSNA, 2026 Supplemental material is available for this article.

Atypical presentation of acute cerebellar infarct as Lhermitte-Duclos disease.

Surgical neurology international2025

Cerebellar infarct resembling Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) is a rare case scenario. LDD being a rare, slowly growing cerebellar tumor is generally characterized by headaches, ataxia, cranial nerve palsies, and impaired cerebellar symptoms. Primarily diagnosed with a magnetic resonance imaging, the lesion has several differential diagnoses, including vascular malformation with cerebellar venous congestion, rhombencephalosynapsis, cerebellar dysplasia, and medulloblastoma. In unusual instances, a cerebellar stroke may mimic LDD, potentially leading to a delay in management. We present a case of a 49-year-old female with complaints of headache and vomiting for 5 days with no previous similar history. Based on the initial impression and classical imaging findings, LDD was diagnosed, and she was managed conservatively. Even though the majority of patients with LDD develop the disease over a course of time, some cases have been reported to show acute presentation. However, on worsening of symptoms, with extension of lesion on repeat imaging, an emergency craniotomy was performed, and biopsy revealed an acute infarct with hemorrhagic transformation. Various neurological conditions can imitate LDD and vice versa. We recommend that a cerebellar stroke should be ruled out when encountering with a radiological diagnosis of LDD, to avoid critical delays in the management of stroke.

Two illustrative cases of adult Lhermitte-Duclos disease and a systematic review of literature related to surgical management.

Brain &amp; spine2025

Lhermitte-Duclos disease is a rare subtype of gangliocytoma, a benign tumor growth in the cerebellum often associated with Cowden syndrome, a sporadic genetic pleomorphic disorder that is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner and caused by a harmful mutation in the PTEN gene. Such a mutation can originate malignant and benign tumors, including dysplastic gangliocytoma of the posterior cranial fossa. We present two illustrative cases of Lhermitte-Duclos disease that we encountered and surgically treated during the last few years. We also performed a systematic literature review concerned with the surgical management of Lhermitte-Duclos disease and Cowden syndrome. Both patients were young females complaining of occipital headaches and underwent brain MRIs that revealed unilateral discrete cerebellar atrophy and expansive lesions of the posterior cranial fossa with characteristic striate T-2 weighted hyperintensity resembling tiger fur. They were both successfully operated on due to the posterior fossa dysplastic gangliocytoma, which was histopathologically confirmed as Lhermitte-Duclos disease. In one patient, genetic testing confirmed a PTEN mutation characteristic for Cowden syndrome. Early diagnosis, genetic testing, and close monitoring are obligatory to enhance the knowledge of Lhermitte-Duclos disease and its probable association with Cowden syndrome to decrease the risk of malignancy of other organs and organic systems. Surgical posterior fossa decompression is required at the onset of neurological symptoms to relieve the mass effect and provide tissue samples for further analysis, ensuring a favorable outcome.

Case Report: A case series of Lhermitte-Duclos disease with surgical intervention.

Frontiers in oncology2025

Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) is a rare dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma often associated with Cowden syndrome and phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) alterations. We report a three-case series focusing on imaging, histopathology, PTEN testing, surgical decision-making, and outcomes. We retrospectively identified three adults with LDD who underwent standardized preoperative imaging [including magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and perfusion when feasible], surgery, and structured follow-up with Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS). PTEN assessment included immunohistochemistry and/or genetic testing where available. All patients in this case series were women (18-53 years). Two underwent subtotal resection and one underwent gross total resection. Characteristic "tiger-striped" magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance was present in all cases. Histopathology showed thickened molecular layer, loss of Purkinje cells, and hypertrophic ganglion-like neurons. One patient required unplanned posterior fossa decompression due to severe postoperative edema. At 6 months, two patients improved functionally while one had poor neurological outcome. PTEN testing supported the association with PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome in one case. PTEN evaluation should be considered in adults with LDD, especially when clinical features suggest Cowden syndrome. Surgical management should balance extent of resection with preservation of venous outflow and cerebellar function. Non-surgical strategies [observation, stereotactic radiotherapy, and exploratory mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition] may be an option in selected scenarios. This single-center retrospective series is limited by its small sample size and variable follow-up imaging.
