Rapidly growing calcified cerebellar astrocytoma in infants.

T Shuto1, Y Ohtsubo, K Sekido, H Iwamoto, I Yamamoto.   

Abstract

We report the case of an infant with a cerebellar astrocytoma that showed marked calcification within only 6 months. In general, only slow-growing tumors tend to calcify. To our knowledge, no other case of such rapid calcification in cerebellar astrocytoma has been reported.
