🎯 Final pearl from Dr. Brigitte Bison: When reviewing follow-up neuro-oncology imaging, don't focus solely on recurrence or secondary malignancies. ⚠️ Consider therapy-induced changes as part of the differential diagnosis. 📌 The best diagnoses come from combining careful observation, pattern recognition, and clinical context. #pedineurorad #IPNTN #PedRad #ASPNR @MirskyDavid @RLClarkeMD @laura1127md @drmankad @ArzuOztrkMD @alexandra_foust @HarumyYoshikawa @JamieClarkeRad

Trigeminal trophic syndrome is generally a clinical diagnosis. It leads to localized ulceration and destruction of face and scalp supplied by trigeminal nerve, most commonly the nasal ala. I have seen only 2 or 3 cases with imaging manifestations through the years and it can be problematic- difficult or impossible to separate from invasive skin cancer, unusual infection, or GPA. The tissue destruction is secondary to abnormal sensory processing and repetitive trauma (rather than a primary dermatologic disease). Patients repeatedly rub, scratch, or pick at numb/dysesthetic skin because of uncomfortable paresthesias.

In a patient with prior radiation for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) or other primary malignant tumor such as adenoid cystic carcinoma, a new intraparenchymal lesion in the anterior temporal lobe is much more likely to represent radiation necrosis than metastatic disease. (Radiation necrosis until proven otherwise) Imaging clues that favor radiation necrosis: -Location: anterior/inferior temporal lobe ( and within radiation field) -Timing: Within first 3 years of radiation -Enhancement: irregular, ring-like or “soap-bubble” -Edema: often disproportionate -Perfusion (DSC MRI): ↓ rCBV -MR spectroscopy: lipid-lactate peaks, ↓ choline Metastasis, while rare, becomes more plausible if: -Lesion is outside radiation field -Multiple lesions in atypical locations (e.g., cerebellum, cortex elsewhere) -Markedly elevated perfusion (high rCBV) -Known systemic metastatic progression
