Rosette-forming glioneuronal tumor (RGNT) of the fourth ventricle has been recognized as a new type of glioneuronal tumor. RGNTs are typically located in the infratentorial midline with involvement of the fourth ventricle. They occasionally involve the aqueduct and/or vermis. RGNTs of unusual anatomical sites or those with unusual findings have been reported. The present case reports describe RGNT of the fourth ventricle with bilateral olivary degeneration. It is important to accumulate imaging findings and biological behaviors of RGNTs given the limited number of cases.
第四脑室内玫瑰花结形成性神经胶质神经元肿瘤(RGNT)已被认为是一种新型的神经胶质神经元肿瘤。RGNTs 通常位于幕下中线,累及第四脑室。它们偶尔也会累及导水管和/或蚓部。已经报道了一些解剖部位不寻常或表现不寻常的 RGNT 病例。本病例报告描述了第四脑室内伴有双侧橄榄核变性的 RGNT。鉴于病例数量有限,积累 RGNT 的影像学表现和生物学行为非常重要。
