The papillary glioneuronal tumor (PGNT) was first reported by Komori et al. as a type of mixed neuronal-glial tumor. It is characterized by pseudopapillary structures, composed of hyaline vessels and outsheathing glial cells, and by the proliferation of neurocytic cells admixed with ganglioid and ganglion cells. Although it is most common in young adults, it can occur in the elderly. We report a case in a 75-year-old woman, the oldest reported person with PGNT described.
乳头状胶质神经元肿瘤（PGNT）最早由小森等人报道为一种混合性神经元-胶质肿瘤。它的特征是假乳头结构，由透明血管和包绕的胶质细胞组成，以及与类神经节细胞和神经节细胞混合的神经细胞增生。虽然它在年轻人中最常见，但也可发生于老年人。我们报告一例75岁女性病例，是报道过的患PGNT的年龄最大的患者。
