Usefulness of neuroimaging and immunohistochemical study for accurate diagnosis of chordoid glioma of the third ventricle: A case report and review of the literature

摘要

Background:Chordoid glioma of the third ventricle is a rare neuroepithelial tumor characterized by a unique histomorphology within the third ventricular region, but with radiological and histopathological features mimicking benign lesions such as meningioma. We report a case of chordoid glioma of the third ventricle and suggest a useful indicator for accurate diagnosis.
