Abstract
The rosette-forming glioneuronal tumor (RGNT) is a novel type of brain tumor recently listed in the WHO 2007 classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. We report the case of a 75-year-old woman harboring a thalamic RGNT with third ventricle dissemination. Age and location make the present case exceptional and which has never previously been reported. A review of the clinical, pathological and radiological features is presented along with the relevant literature.Entities:
