Pilocytic astrocytoma is a central nervous system neoplasia that arises during pediatric age. Only few cases have been documented in patients older than 50 years old. It is a low-grade lesion that can rarely undergo malignant changes presenting the histologic features of a high-grade glioma. We report a case of a pilocytic astrocytoma arising in the eyeball of a 53-year-old man affected by glaucoma that underwent malignant evolution.
毛细胞型星形细胞瘤是一种发生于儿童期的中枢神经系统肿瘤。50岁以上患者中仅有少数病例有记录。它是一种低级别病变，很少会发生恶性转变而呈现出高级别胶质瘤的组织学特征。我们报告一例发生于一名53岁青光眼男性患者眼球内的毛细胞型星形细胞瘤，该肿瘤发生了恶性进展。
