Area of Science:

  • Neuro-oncology
  • Surgical Pathology
  • Cellular Biology

Background:

  • Tanycytic ependymoma is an uncommon fibrillar variant of ependymoma.
  • Its piloid (hair-like) cells and "ependymal" nuclei can lead to misdiagnosis as schwannoma or astrocytoma.
  • Well-documented cases are scarce, necessitating increased awareness.
