Abstract

Ganglioglioma is one of the rare mixed neuronal glial tumors of the central nerve system. It is responsible for 0.4 2% of the intracranial tumors observed in infants and young matures. Its most common localization is the supratentorial region. Typically, the first symptom is epilepsy. Due to the glial structure, that rare tumor can exhibit a malign transformation. Growing slowly through several months or years, it forms neurological dysfunction. The standard treatment of that supratentorial tumor is usually total resection. If an anaplastic quality is observed, the patient undergoes radiotherapy after the surgical intervention. In this article, we presented a 53-year-old patient who presented with headache and dysphasia. The patient was operated for the cystic mass in the left parietal lobe reported as an abscess. The pathology was reported as ganglioglioma and we discussed the case according to the literature.

Özet

Gangliogliom santral sinir sisteminin nadir görülen mikst nöronal glial tümörlerindendir. Çocuklarda ve genç erişkinlerde görülen intrakranial tümörlerin %0,4 ile %2 sinden sorumludur. En sık yerleşim yeri supratentoriyal bölgededir. Tipik olarak ilk belirti nöbettir. Nadir görülen bu tü- mörler glial yapısı nedeniyle malign transformasyon gösterebilir. Birkaç ay ile birkaç yıl içerisinde yavaş yavaş büyüyerek nörolojik disfonksiyon oluşturur. Tercih edilmesi gereken tedavi yöntemi, tümörün cerrahi olarak gross total rezeksiyonu olup tümör anaplastik özellik de gösteriyorsa cerrahi tedavi sonrası radyoterapi uygulanmasıdır. Bu makalede 53 yaşında baş ağrısı ve disfazi şikayetleriyle doktora başvuran, sol parietalde kistik kitle tanısı konularak ameliyat edilen ve patolojisi gangliogliom olarak raporlanan vaka bildirilerek literatür eşliğinde tartışılmıştır.
