Title: Oligodendroglioma of the fourth ventricle with intracranial and spinal oligodendrogliomatosis: a case report. Author: Pitt MA, Jones AW, Reeve RS, Cowie RA. Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 1992; 6(4):371-4. PubMed ID: 1388833. Abstract: We report a case of oligodendroglioma of the fourth ventricle complicated by disseminated intracranial and spinal oligodendrogliomatosis. This is further evidence that primary oligodendrogliomas arising in close proximity to the cerebrospinal pathway have a predilection for spontaneous dissemination. This condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hydrocephalus and myelopathy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
