Abstract:Objective To analyze the pathogenesis, clinical features, pathomorphological features and key points of the microsurgical treatment of the intracranial ossifying fibromyxoid tumor (OFT). Methods Clinical data of 1 patient with rare giant intracranial OFT were analyzed. The lesion was removed by modified pterional approach. And the literatures on the disease were reviewed. Results The tumor was subtotally removed and the pathological diagnosis was OFT. The patient received Cyberknife treatment 1 month after surgery and recovered well after 5 months of follow-up period. Conclusions Microsurgery is the first choice for intracranial OFT, and the blood vessels and nerves of the skull base must be protected carefully. The long-term outcome needs further follow-up observation.
