Hypothalamic and pancreatic lesions with diabetes mellitus.

A case is reported of a neoplasm of mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial origin consisting of plasmacytoma, lymphoma, ganglioneuroma, and astrocytoma in the same mass. The tumour arose in the hypothalamus of a 43 year old diabetic woman who also had alpha cell hyperplasia and beta cell hypoplasia of the islets of Langerhans. It is suggested that both hypothalamic and pancreatic lesions produced diabetes mellitus in this patient.

Combined neuroepithelial (colloid) cyst and xanthogranuloma (xanthoma) in the third ventricle.

A case is reported of a combined neuroepithelial cyst and xanthogranuloma of the choroid plexus in the third ventricle of a 22-year-old woman. It is suggested that proliferated neuroepithelial cells lining the cyst enter the fibrous wall through the disrupted basal lamina, and then become xanthomatous cells. Disintegration of these foamy epithelial cells releases lipids and other materials into the cyst wall, provoking a response of macrophages and multinucleated giant cells of foreign-body type. A xanthogranuloma is then formed. The origin of "colloid" cysts is from neuroepithelium; these cysts arise from both ependyma and choroid plexus. Those cysts arising in or near the floor of the third ventricle may originate in stomodeal epithelium, but a distinction cannot be made from neuroepithelial cysts by presently available methods.

Neoplasm of mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial origin: liposarcomatous meningioma combined with gliomas.

A case is reported of an intracranial neoplasm of mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial (glial) origin occurring in the parieto-parasagittal region of the brain of a 19 year old man. A meningioma with liposarcomatous and psammomatous components comprised the mesenchymal part of the combined tumour. The neuroepithelial portion was composed of mixed ependymoma and astrocytoma. The combined neoplasm had the gross appearances and several microscopic features of giant-celled glioblastoma, giant cell sarcoma, and monstrocellular sarcoma. The findings suggest that these tumours have a mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial origin.
