| Description |
Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor (DLGNT) is a rare pediatric neoplasm categorized by the WHO in 2016 (1, 2). It is characterized by communicating hydrocephalus, slow tumor growth, CSF with absence of tumor cells, and MRI showing diffuse leptomeningeal enhancement and cystic changes (3). Here we present, to our knowledge, the first case in which direct cystic tumor infiltration of the optic apparatus was the initial manifestation. |
