Oligodendrogliomas rarely occur in the posterior fossa of childhood and constitute approximately 1% of pediatric brain tumors. Only six pediatric posterior fossa oligodendroglioma cases have been reported to date and none of them were cystic. The authors present a seven-year-old girl with cystic, cerebellar midline localized tumor. A standard suboccipital craniectomy was performed and the tumor was histologically confirmed as oligodendroglioma. After operation the patient underwent radiation therapy and at one the-year follow-up, no recurrence of the tumor was observed.
少突胶质细胞瘤很少发生于儿童后颅窝，约占儿童脑肿瘤的1%。迄今为止，仅报道过6例儿童后颅窝少突胶质细胞瘤病例，且均无囊肿。作者报告了一名7岁患有小脑中线囊肿性肿瘤的女孩。实施了标准的枕下颅骨切除术，肿瘤经组织学确诊为少突胶质细胞瘤。术后患者接受了放射治疗，在一年的随访中，未观察到肿瘤复发。
