Tumor extension into the pterygoid fossa or paranasal sinuses occurs in 10% of cases. Erosion of the underlying bone and enlargement of the foramen ovale, foramen rotundum, or the superior orbital fissure Image features : Dumbbell-shaped configuration with smooth margin : Usually hypointense relative to gray matter on T1WI but occasionally isointense, with homogeneous enhancement : Almost always hyperintense on T2WI : Large tumors can have heterogeneous signal intensity due to degenerative changes RadioGraphics 1995; 15:795-811 |
