A rare tumour, cerebellar liponeurocytoma, is classified into glioneuronal tumours under the 2000 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumours of the central nervous system. The current 2007 WHO classification, therefore, assigns grade II to the cerebellar liponeurocytoma. Tumours are predominantly localized in cerebellar hemispheres, and the second most common location is the vermis. To date, approximately 40 reported cases of cerebellar and 10 cases of supratentorial intraventricular liponeurocytoma have been reported. In this report, an unusual case of cerebellar liponeurocytoma was presented with extracerebellar location. In the future tumour classification, it should be considered that liponeurocytomas are not restricted only to the cerebellum, but they are located in supratentorial areas as well.
一种罕见的肿瘤，小脑脂肪神经细胞瘤，在2000年世界卫生组织（WHO）中枢神经系统肿瘤分类中被归类为神经胶质神经元肿瘤。因此，当前的2007年WHO分类将小脑脂肪神经细胞瘤定为二级。肿瘤主要位于小脑半球，第二常见的部位是蚓部。迄今为止，已报道约40例小脑脂肪神经细胞瘤病例和10例幕上脑室内脂肪神经细胞瘤病例。在本报告中，呈现了1例位于小脑外的不寻常小脑脂肪神经细胞瘤病例。在未来的肿瘤分类中，应考虑到脂肪神经细胞瘤不仅局限于小脑，也可位于幕上区域。
