    Author: Mohanty S, Das K, Correa MA, D'Cruz AJ.
    Journal: Neurol India; 2003 Jun; 51(2):248-9. PubMed ID: 14571016.
    Abstract:
    Glial heterotopia or the occurrence of isolated non-teratomatous extracranial glial tissue is rare. We report a neonate with extensive extranasal glial heterotopia involving the left buccopharyngeal region, palate and base of the skull and presenting with respiratory distress and a bleeding oral mass. A staged operative approach was adopted to excise the lesion. The literature on the subject is briefly reviewed.
