Abstract:
Papillary glioneuronal tumor (PGNT) is a rare central nervous system neoplasm. Of reported cases, the vast majority are located in the frontal and temporal lobes. We present the case of a 39-year-old male who presented with a one day history of gait disturbance following chemotherapy treatment for metastatic rectal adenocarcinoma. Following MRI of the head showed a tectal mass. Following an occipital interhemispheric craniotomy for tumor resection, final pathology was diagnostic of a papillary neuroglial tumor, WHO grade I. To the best or out knowledge this is the only report of it arising from the tectal plate.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...
