Congenital neoplasms of brain presenting at birth are extremely uncommon. We report a case of congenital ganglioglioma presenting at birth with hydrocephalus. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt and surgical debulking of the tumour along with histopathological confirmation were done at 6 months of age. On follow-up at 18 months, the child's hydrocephalus is static and his assessed developmental age is 10-12 months.
出生时即出现的先天性脑肿瘤极为罕见。我们报告一例出生时即出现且伴有脑积水的先天性神经节胶质瘤病例。患儿6个月大时进行了脑室腹腔分流术及肿瘤部分切除术，并进行了组织病理学确诊。在18个月时随访发现，患儿脑积水病情稳定，评估其发育年龄为10至12个月。
