Abstract

12歳齢,雌のミニチュアプードルが3ヵ月にわたり神経症状を示した。MRI検査で右の大脳腹側に腫瘍が確認され,側脳室を圧迫していた。剖検では,腫瘍は梨状葉に存在し,2×3cm,白色で脆弱であった。また周囲への浸潤および硬膜との癒着が確認された。腫瘍細胞は大型,円形から多角形で,細胞質内には淡好酸性の微細穎粒が充満していた。この穎粒はPAS染色で強陽性を示した。また紡錘形の髄膜細胞様細胞が腫瘍巣に混在していた。腫瘍細胞はvimentin,NSEおよびS-100が陽性であった.電子顕微鏡観察では,多数の細胞内穎粒が認められ,基底膜は認められなかった。以上のことから本腫瘍は頭蓋内穎粒細胞腫と診断された。

A 12-year-old female miniature poodle showed a 3-month history of neurological signs. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed a high intensity tumor mass in the right cerebral hemisphere with compression of the lateral ventricle. At necropsy, a 2×3 cm white, friable mass was found in the right ventral pyriform lobe. Microscopically, the tumor cells were large, polygonal to round cells supported by a sparse fibrovascular stroma. The tumor cells typically possesed finely granular, pale cosinophilic cytoplasm with strongly positive periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction. The tumor cells were immunopositive for vimentin, NSE and S-100. Ultrastructurally, the tumor cells showed large amounts of granules in the cytoplasm, and absence of basement membrane. Based on the above-mentioned findings, the intracranial granular cell tumor was diagnosed.
