Description |
Central neurocytoma is a slow-growing supratentorial tumor of neuroepithelial origin that frequently arises from the septum pellucidum or lateral ventricular wall. The main presenting symptom is headache and the main sign is papilledema. Although histopathology is benign and surgical resection is often curative, many surgeries may be necessary and diagnosis is made too late to prevent vision loss from chronic papilledema. |
