An Unusual Case Study on Lhermitte Duclos Disease With Intralesional Cerebellar Metastasis

Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Lhermitte–Duclos disease (LDD) is a rare tumor. It is often associated with Cowden syndrome (CS); however, it can occur by itself. Mainly diagnosed by MRI, when it comes to preoperative, the T2- weightened MRI demonstrates the classical “tiger-striped” pattern. The treatment for LDD consists of surgical decompression or excision. We present here a rare case of Lhermitte–Duclos disease in a patient of carcinoma lung evaluated for metastasis with incidental detection of Lhermitte–Duclos disease with intra-lesional cerebellar as well as cerebral metastasis.
