Petroclival extra-adrenal myelolipoma: illustrative case
This case underscores the importance of considering EAMs as part of the broad differential diagnosis for petroclival lesions and highlights the diagnostic challenges posed by rare skull base entities. Given their radiographic similarities to more common pathologies, effective management requires multidisciplinary collaboration across radiology, pathology, surgery, and primary care teams. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25377.
