1 NAVIGATING THE SELLA AND CENTRAL SKULL BASE Christopher P. Hess, M.D., Ph.D. DISCLOSURES Research Support, General Electric SLIDES: LEARNING OBJECTIVES WE WILL NOT DISCUSS Review general anatomy of the central skull base Develop a structured approach to diagnosis for lesions in & around the central skull base Recognize findings that require urgent intervention X SATCHMO Juxtasellar lesions Exhaustive differentials Skull base foramina in detail MESSAGE CSB: Birdseye View 3 important steps for correct diagnosis in & around the central skull base: Identify lesion origin Recognize key imaging features Evaluate surrounding tissues

2 CSB: Birdseye View Optic canal Carotid sulcus F. rotundum F. ovale CSB: Birdseye View Frontal Bone Sphenoid Bone F. spinosum Temporal bone Occipital Bone CSB: Birdseye View CSB: Birdseye View LSW LSW GSW Sella GSW Temporal bone Clivus Petro-clival fissure Temporal bone Clivus CSB: Midline Anatomy Planum sphenoidale S SS Nasal cavity CSB NP STOPS AROUND THE CSB 1 1. Planum sphenoidale 2 2. Sella 3. Clivus 3 4. Nasopharynx 4. Sphenoid sinus

Optic nerve glioma + E. Normal variant CASE 1 Skull Base Mengioma A. Macroadenoma Olfactory Groove Planum Sphenoidale Tuberculum Sella Petroclival B. Meningioma C. Metastatic disease D. Optic nerve glioma E. Normal variant

4 Keys to diagnosis: Sagittal images Separate lesion from pituitary gland Dural tails Skull Base Mengioma Curious Features of Meningiomas Vessel Narrowing Bony Reaction Pneumosinus Primary differential is adenoma Stalk effect - hyperprolactinemia Main issue is growth in small spaces May extend through SB foramina STOPS AROUND THE CSB CASE 2 Headache, AMS, Visual Deficits #2 - Sella + CASE 2 Headache, AMS, Visual Deficits CASE 2 A. Hemorrhagic adenoma B. Rathke cleft cyst C. Craniopharyngioma D. Meningioma * E. Chordoma

5 CASE 2 Pituitary Adenoma A. Hemorrhagic adenoma B. Rathke cleft cyst C. Craniopharyngioma Sellar enlargement, growth in 6 directions Checklist - optic chiasm, hemorrhage, cav sinus signal similar to gray matter Larger tumors have more heterogeneous signal D. Meningioma E. Chordoma + Diagnostic Key: Where is the Gland? Pituitary Apoplexy Acute visual deficit Intratumoral hemorrhage Blooming on * Hematocrit levels Hyperdensity on CT + The Four Horsemen of the APOCALYPSE The Four Horsemen of the SELLA Death Famine War Conquest Adenoma Rathke Craniopharyngioma Meningioma

6 Craniopharyngioma CT Helps to Confirm Calcification + Craniopharyngioma Rathke Cleft Cyst: A Histologic Continuum Mostly suprasellar May enlarge sella Mixed solid & cystic Rule of 9 s: 90% calcify ( eggshell ) 90% cystic 90% enhance 90% suprasellar Incidental or symptomatic Typically midline (arise from pars intermedia) 40% intrasellar, 60% extend suprasellar Natural history is slow growth Intracystic Nodule hypointense No enhancement Two Types of Rathke Cleft Cysts Machine Oil (2/3) vs Simple Serous (1/3) STOPS AROUND THE CSB #3 - Clivus hyperintense variable More frequently symptomatic hypointense bright Fluid approximates CSF

7 CASE 3 Diplopia, CN6 Palsy CASE 3 Diplopia, CN6 Palsy + CASE 3 Your Diagnosis? CASE 3 Your Diagnosis? A. Metastasis A. Metastasis B. Lymphoma B. Lymphoma C. Pituitary adenoma D. Benign osseous lesion E. Chordoma C. Pituitary adenoma D. Benign osseous lesion E. Chordoma CASE 3 Clival Chordoma Ecchordosis Physaliphora Derive from primitive notocord Spheno-occipital synchondrosis Circumscribed midline tumors Expansile growth Physaliphorous cells = high Honeycomb enhancement

8 Ecchordosis Physaliphora Chondrosarcoma Benign tumor of notochord remants 2% of autopsies Asymptomatic Does not enhance Clival pedicle sometimes present Recommendation: follow + Usually off midline (petro-clival synchondrosis) Tend to be lower grade tumors Better prognosis than chordoma High signal = cartilage Chondrosarcoma Distinguishing Imaging Features? Chordoma Thumb Osseous Matrix Usually off midline (petro-clival synchondrosis) Tend to be lower grade tumors Better prognosis than chordoma High signal = cartilage Up to 0% have chondroid matrix Sequestrations Chordoma Chondroid matrix Chondrosarcoma Distinguishing Imaging Features? Arrested Pneumatization Chordoma Thumb Higher ADC in Chondrosarcoma* Developmental lesion Nonexpansile Sclerotic margins Curvilinear calcification Intralesional fat ADC 2% higher in chondrosarcoma than chordoma Lowest ADC in poorly differentiated chordoma * Yeom et al, AJNR 2013

9 Diabetic with Cranial Neuropathy x Weeks Skull Base Osteomyelitis Skull Base Osteomyelitis Skull Base Osteomyelitis Diabetic or immunocompromised Headache & cranial neuropathy Isolated or contiguous spread Otitis media & mastoiditis Petrous apicitis Key to diagnosis: surrounding inflammatory changes + Pseudomonas most common Clival Tumor Mimic Fibrous Dysplasia Tumor mimic on MRI! Expansile but shape preserving Low signal Variable enhancement Key to diagnosis is CT +

10 STOPS AROUND THE CSB CASE 4 Nasal Congestion, Epistaxis #4 - Nasopharynx + CASE 4 Nasal Congestion, Epistaxis CASE 4 A. JNA B. Lymphoma C. Pituitary adenoma + D. Chordoma E.

Macroadenoma ICA Pseudoaneurysm Multiple Cranial Neuropathies Contained arterial rupture from trauma, radiation, or malignancy Clinical triad: visual changes, epistaxis, history of facial trauma Laminated signal Phase artifact from pulsatile flow Beware of the low mass! + Sphenoid Mucocele SUMMARY Location, location, location One imaging modality is often not enough Useful imaging features - low, effects on bone & surrounding structures, calcification, dural tails, etc + Be on the alert for mimics - is it an aneurysm? Make the diagnosis, then think about management
