Title: Giant gangliocytic paraganglioma of the filum terminale. Case report. Author: Djindjian M, Ayache P, Brugières P, Malapert D, Baudrimont M, Poirier J. Journal: J Neurosurg; 1990 Sep; 73(3):459-61. PubMed ID: 2384785.

Histologically, these neoplasms have considerable similarity with ependymoma and the diagnosis can be easily missed unless special techniques are employed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
