Abstract

Glioneuronal tumor with neuropil-like islands (GTNI) is a rare and novel mixed neuronal-glial tumor that typically affects the supratentorial cerebral hemispheres of adult patients. It is extremely rare for GTNIs to be in the spine of pediatric and adolescent patients, and there have been no reports of infratentorial GTNIs. We report a case of an elderly patient with an anaplastic, infratentorial GTNI that occurred in the cerebellum, including describing MRI features of our case.

신경그물 섬을 동반한 신경아교신경원 종양은 성인의 천막상부 대뇌반구에 발생하는 매우 드문 종양이다. 소아 및 청소년 환자에서 척추에 발생한 신경아교신경원 종양에 대한 보고는 있으나 이의 천막하부 발생에 대한 보고는 없었다. 저자들은 노인 환자의 소뇌에서 발생한 역형성 신경아교신경원 종양의 증례를 경험하여 보고하고자 한다.
