Abstract

Introducción: Las metástasis durales intracraneales se forman por diseminación hematógena. El pronóstico de esta patología es muy malo, ya que el paciente suele evolucionar hasta la muerte. Pacientes y métodos: Presentar ocho casos de metástasis durales, asociados a una revisión de la literatura. Resultados: Se revisaron ocho casos de pacientes diagnosticados de metástasis durales, con una edad media de 61 años, cinco mujeres y tres hombres. Los sitios primarios fueron: mama, pulmón, próstata y linfoma. El tiempo entre el diagnóstico de la lesión primaria y el inicio de la metástasis osciló entre los cinco y los 14 meses, con una media de ocho meses. El período en meses de supervivencia osciló entre cuatro y ocho meses, con una media de 6,25 meses. Conclusión: Las metástasis durales tienen mal pronóstico, su presencia indica diseminación metastásica y mal pronóstico.

 Palabras clave: duramadre, metástasis, neuroimagen.
