16 November 2012. Oculistexpressed nystagmus at examination. Paretic changes OD, OU. Pale ODN, obscure on the temporal side, narrowed arteries, curved veins, transparent retina, ocular fundus of intense color.

Surgery - - - 19.10.2012 Ventriculoperitoneostomia on the right.

1. After treating the surgical field in the right occipital region an up to 4 cm horseshoe-shaped incision was made around the Dandy point. Hemostasis, the periosteum peeled, trefine opening was made and expanded with cutters to the size of the pump. Coagulation TMO 2x2 mm, lateral ventricle puncture made, pressurized transparent neurolymph obtained. A 6 cm ventricular catheter was set in the ventricular cavity, the pump was laid in the bed. Peritoneal end was laid under the skin through an additional incision 1 cm above the right clavicle towards the anterior abdominal wall.
2. Up to 4 cm incision to the right of the navel, transrectal laparotomy, the distal end of the shunt was put into the abdominal cavity. The shunt is functioning.
Layer-suturing of wounds. Aseptic dressing.

PCF Trepanation with Subtotal Excision of the 4th cerebral sinus blastoma

Under general anesthesia, after treating the surgical field with an alcoholic solution of chlorhexidine there was made a Masrfziger-Town linear incision. The edges of the wound were set apart. The occipital bone scale and posterior atlas half-arcs were skeletized. A burr hole was imposed, the bone splintered, a part of posterior atlas half-arc removed. Pachymeninx was opened in V-shape. Direct sinus bandaged. Vermis located with the yellowish-gray tissue of the tumor upwards, clear boundary located between the cerebellar tonsils. The tumor excision was started through morcellation with coagulation. Hemostasis during the surgery with Tachocomb, spongostan powder, sergicel fibrillar and sergicel-flow. After removing the bulk of the tumor it was revealed to have had fused with the bottom of the 4th ventricle in the upper sections. If you try to remove that part of the tumor a severe stem reaction occurs in the form of blood pressure rise to 150/100 mm, bradycardia up to 52-56 (at three attempts), which gave ground to terminate further surgical procedures in the area of ​​the brain stem. A TachoComb plate was stacked on the sector of the residual tumor.
At the initial admission (20/11/2012) there were complaints of unsteady walk, weakness. Potentially serious condition. Proper constitution, satisfactory nutrition. Skin and visible mucous coat is pale pink, clean. Peripheral lymph nodes not enlarged. Pharynx without hyperemia. Nasal breathing is free. Vesicular breathing, reaches all sections, no rale. Rhythmic heart tones, muffled. The abdomen is soft and painless. The liver and spleen are not enlarged. Undisturbed defecation and urination. Locally: in the occipital area of head there can be palpated the subcutaneous pump of the shunt system. The postoperative scar is formed.
Neurologically: clear consciousness. Position is active. Gets up and walks with support. Symmetrical face. Unsteady in the Romberg pose.
Conclusion by the CPAE pathologist - glioblastoma.

Histology report ¹ 249558-85/12 of 21.11.12 (PAD of RCCH) determined is a tumor formation, represented by complexes of spindle-shaped rounded cells with dark nuclei and condensed chromatin, the nucleolus is not clearly defined. In most cells there can be noted nuclear polymorphism. Among the complexes of tumor cells observed are the foci represented by microcystic fields containing protoplasmic astrocytes, foci of pseudo-palisade structures and rosette-type formations. The tumor tissue shows large foci of necrosis in the form of eosinophilia, erosion of boundaries of the cell nuclei and fibers; vascular proliferation, foci of lime deposits. Conclusion: glioblastoma.

 

Thus, the diagnosis is: glioblastoma of the vermis, condition after subtotal resection. On 23/11/12 started was the application of adjuvant chemoradiotherapy of HIT-GMB-D/ PIV block : cisplatin 16 mg 1st -5th days, etoposide, 1st – 3rd days 80 mg, vincristine 1.2 mg 5 day (23-27.11.12), underwent satisfactorily. Accompanying treatment – emictory, fluconazole, antibiotics, antiemetic.

Gradual negative dynamics of neurological condition – the girl gradually quits walking and talking –increasing tetraparesis, eye-movement distortions, bulbar syndrome. Neurological status – Consciousness – profound somnolentia. Weak reaction to examination. Pupils symmetrical, lowered reaction to light. Convergent squint. Disphonia, disphagy. The shunt functionizes. The 1.04.13 MT shows swelling of upper sections of the 4th ventricule, the tumor being tightly glomerated with the brain stem, cerebral edema. =Surgical interference not indicated due to the patient’s severe condition and the impossibility of radical excision”

Intensive antiedemic dehydrating therapy is applied (dexamethasone 10 mg per day from 14.03.13 till 02.04.13, the dose increased due to growing edema of stem, Dexamethasone 6g 4 times per day intravenously, from 02.04.13 till 11.04.13, and from 12.04 till now (22/07/13 – TN) Dexamethasone 4g 4 times per day intravenously). Supporting treatment – infusive therapy (glucose-potassium-magnesium mix, albumin, salt solutions), biseptol, asparcam, diacarb, Quamatel, tube feeding.

From 10.04.13, after a repeated discussion with neurosurgeons, - additional administration of cavinton intravenously, neurox intravenously, cereton intravenously, B1 and B6 vitamins, piracetam.

MT of 11.04.13. A series of MRT-tomograms of supra- and subtentorial structures of cerebrum, without contract enhancement, shows the condition after removal of the PCF space-occupying lesion. Post-surgery changes are detected in the PCF: in the 4th ventricule view has an oval-shaped space-occupying lesion 19x22x38 mm with the signs of perifocal edema. The tricorns and the 3rd ventricule are enlarged. Subarachnoid cavities are randomly enlarged convexitally in the frontal area and parietal lobe, not sharply in the temporal regions, with deepened sulci. No convincing evidence of the shunt dysfunction revealed. Hypophysis of usual size and position. Stem structures without pathology signs. Cerebellar tonsils on the McRae line. = conclusion: the MR-signs of a PCF space-occupying lesion. Post chemo- and radiation therapy condition. A series of MRT-tomograms of supra- and subtentorial structures of cerebrum, with contract enhancement, show a more intensive MR-signal from the PCF space-occupying lesion in the 4th ventricule projection, of roundish-oval shape, sized 19x22x38 mm. = conclusion: the post-chemo- and radiation therapy condition.

The clinical case has been consulted y prof. O.G. Zhukova (head of neurooncology dept at Federal Research and Clinics Centre), recommendation – palliative cyclic polychemotherapy Temozolomide 100 mg 1-5 days once in 4 weeks.

By the release from hospital the dexamethasone dose 6 mg per day (2mg x 3t. intravenously). Transfusion of er.mass A(2) rhesus neg. dated 08.05.13 (No.1)

7 May 2013. A meeting of physicians prof. Z.M Yenikeyeva, deputy Chief Doctor R.V. Basharova, dept. head T.N. Krasavtseva, chief child oncologist R.R. Bairamgulov, doctor in charge V.B. Makhonin concluded: child A.D. Badretdinova, 5-year-old; diagnosis – anaplastic ependymoma of the vermis growing into the area of stem, partial resection, Mo. Complic. - noncommunicating hydrocephalus. Eye movement deviations. Peripheral paresis of the right facial nerve. Secondary atrophy of the optic nerve disks. Tetraparesis. Bulbar syndrome. Vegetative state.

The child was administered operative treatment in the form of partial resection of tumor and VPS, chemoradiotherapy under E-HIT protocol, 2 blocks of supportive therapy, showing negative dynamics – progressing stem symptoms, the condition stabilized against the post-syndrome treatment. However, a gross neurological defect remains (deep somnolentia, eye-movement symptoms, deep tetraparesis, bulbar syndrome, facial nerve paresis, persistent vegetative state). For anti-tumor treatment administered is the therapy with Temozolomide (5 days 100 mg orally or once in 4 weeks intyravenously), next course is planned for 20.05.13. currently the child is administered the post-syndrome treatment (general nursing, tube feeding, dehydration, vasoactive, nootropics). Discharge allowable for the outpatient therapy.

Note for residence pediatrician: application should be submitted to obtain Temozolomide 100 mg in capsules No.5 – 12 packs for supportive therapy outpatiently during 1 year (under the DLO program, as for a disabled child).

 

On 8-20.04.13 the child was in the neurosurgery dept of CCCH No 17 undergoing rehabilitation treatment (massage, nootropics, vasoactive). Subjectively, the mother notes improvement in the form of some motion activity.

Description as at 20 May 2013. Serious condition. Temperature 37.3*C. The severity is caused by the brain stem edema (tetraparesis, bulbar syndrome). Consciousness – somnolentia.
