Papillary glioneuronal tumor. A case report.
Neurocirugía 2018 May 20
Papillary glioneuronal tumor (PGNT) is a recently described central nervous system neoplasm. In 2007, the World Health Organization classified this tumor as a grade I neuronal-glial neoplasm. Patients are usually juvenile and young adults who commonly present with headache or seizures. We report a case of a 13-year-old boy that was related to our hospital after suffering a mild head injury result of an automobile accident. Emergent CT scan showed a right hypointense temporo-occipital lesion. MRI confirmed the presence of a lesion suggestive of a primary brain tumor. The patient underwent total resection of the tumor, followed by an uneventful recovery. Pathological analysis of the lesion revealed characteristic pseudopapillary structure with astrocytes and neurons, compatible with PGNT. We discuss the clinical, Radiological and histological features of this infrequent type of tumors.
