Malignant transformation of central neurocytoma with dissemination 17 years after initial treatment: illustrative case [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Central neurocytomas usually have a favorable clinical course, and gross total resection (GTR) results in long-term survival. Recurrences of central neurocytomas are usually local, and dissemination is extremely rare.

Molecular Landscape of Pediatric Low‐Grade Gliomas: Insights From RNA‐NGS and Bioinformatic Analysis
ABSTRACT Pediatric low‐grade gliomas (pLGG) are the most common group of childhood brain tumors. Genetic alterations in the RAS–RAF–mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway are the molecular drivers in the vast majority of pLGG. A large proportion of pediatric pLGG are characterized by the presence of fusion genes.

Tumor‐related epilepsy in glioma: A multidisciplinary overview
Abstract Seizures are a common and challenging symptom in brain tumors, affecting approximately 60% of patients. Tumor‐related epilepsy (TRE) in glioma patients requires personalized and dynamic management in a multidisciplinary environment, especially for its intricate pathophysiology and unpredictable disease evolution. This investigation provides an

Atypical Extraventricular Neurocytoma
The authors report a case of atypical extraventricular neurocytoma (EVN) transformed from EVN which had been initially diagnosed as an oligodendroglioma 15 years ago. An 8-year-old boy underwent a surgical resection for a right frontal mass which was initially diagnosed as oligodendroglioma. When the tumor recurred 15 years later, a secondary operation

Atypical central neurocytoma with leptomeningeal dissemination: a case report
Background Central neurocytomas represent 0.25–0.5% of all intracranial tumors in adults. Leptomeningeal spread is uncommon, and the exact incidence of meningeal spread is unknown due to sparse literature.

ABSTRACT Paediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumours are the second most common childhood malignancy and the leading cause of cancer‐related mortality in this age group. Histopathological diagnosis can be challenging, particularly for rare or ambiguous tumours, and may result in misclassification.

Primary Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for pineal region tumors: A systematic review and pooled analysis of available literature with histological stratification [PDF]
Pineal region tumors (PTs) represent extremely rare pathologies, characterized by highly heterogeneous histological patterns. Most of the available evidence for Gamma Knife radiosurgical (GKSR) treatment of PTs arises from multimodal regimens, including ...
