Abstract:
A case of central neurocytoma occurring in a 22-year-old man is presented. This tumor is generally considered to be benign in appearance, nonrecurrent, and amenable to surgical resection. However, this particular neurocytoma demonstrated anaplastic features, raising the issue of malignancy and the need for additional modes of treatment. Implicated factors and possible optimal treatment for this tumor are discussed.
