A case with brain metastasis involving bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles (bMCP) was reported. A 71-year-old male with gastric cancer was treated for multiple brain metastasis by gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR) in September, 2004. Two months after the initial GKR, MRI showed asymmetrical enhanced lesions involving bMCP. A few months later, MRI revealed an expansional infiltration of bMCP lesions. The patient had presented with headache loss of appetite, cerebellar ataxia, diplopia and slight dysmetria. PET showed 2-deoxy-2- [18F] fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) uptake of the bMCP lesions. The lesions were diagnosed as brain metastasis of gastric cancer. The patient underwent his second GKR (marginal dose : 19Gy, maximum dose 38Gy) MRI revealed the disappearance of the tumors 3 months after the second GKR. One year later, the patient showed no evidence of recurrence. For the last time, our case was diagnosed as brain metastasis from gastric cancer without meningeal carcinomatosis. It was suggested that FDG-PET can provide additional information about the lesion of bMCP. GKR may be useful to treat the tumor in bMCP.

报告一例涉及双侧小脑中段 (bMCP) 的脑转移。2004年9月,一名71岁的胃癌男性接受了伽玛刀放射外科 (GKR) 治疗多发性脑转移。初始GKR后两个月,MRI显示涉及bMCP的不对称增强病变。几个月后,MRI显示bMCP病变的扩大浸润。患者出现头痛、食欲不振、小脑共济失调、复视和轻度失调。PET显示bMCP病变的2-脱氧-2- [18F] 氟-D-葡萄糖 (FDG) 摄取。病变诊断为胃癌脑转移。患者接受了第二次GKR (边缘剂量: 19Gy,最大剂量38Gy) MRI检查,发现第二次GKR后3个月肿瘤消失。一年后,患者没有复发的迹象。最后一次,我们的病例被诊断为胃癌脑转移,没有脑膜癌。建议fdg-pet可以提供有关bMCP病变的其他信息。GKR可能对治疗bMCP中的肿瘤有用。
