5 m.Summary
2 m.0:01
This is an example of a 41-year-old male patient
0:04
presenting with headaches and seizures,
0:07
and has a relatively well-defined
0:10
T2 hyperintense lesion
0:12
in the right frontal operculum.
0:15
As you can see,
0:16
it does not show any contrast enhancement.
0:18
And here's the tumor seen
0:20
on the sagittal weighted images,
0:21
sagittal post-contrast images.
0:23
You can see the tumor is in the frontal,
0:27
infralateral frontal lobe,
0:28
in the precentral region and frontal operculum .
0:32
And this tumor is not showing you dark signal on
0:36
the FLAIR images in the central part of the tumor,
0:39
as we expect for a T2 FLAIR mismatch sign to be.
0:42
In fact, it's bright,
0:44
homogeneously bright on the FLAIR images.
0:47
And that is the reason I would not call
0:49
this a T2 FLAIR mismatch sign.
0:51
But that does not mean that this cannot
0:54
be an IDH mutated astrocytoma.
0:56
If I see the sign, that's 100% positive predictive
0:59
value to call this an IDH mutated astrocytoma.
1:03
If I don't see the sign,
1:05
this could be an IDH mutated astrocytoma,
1:08
or it could be an oligodendroglioma,
1:10
or even it could be an IDH wild-type tumor.
1:12
But because it's a younger patient
1:15
and presenting with this very superficial mass,
1:19
this in fact turned out to be
1:22
an IDH mutated astrocytoma.
1:24
But I would not call this T2 FLAIR mismatch sign
1:26
based on the imaging alone.
