Intracranial granulocytic sarcoma: CT, MR, and angiography.
Granulocytic sarcoma is a rare, solid tumor composed of immature granulocytes usually found in association with systemic leukemia in younger patients. We present a case of granulocytic sarcoma occurring in an elderly female with no evidence of systemic leukemia. Computed tomography, MR (with and without Gd-DTPA), and angiography showed features commonly found in meningiomas.
