A clinico-neuropathological report is given on a four months old girl with head enlargement first recognized at the age of four weeks. A giant intracranial tumor was found at autopsy, which was histologically an isomorphous, largely pilocytic astrocytoma without morphological features suggesting rapid growth. This connatal astrocytoma seems unique in size, suggesting tumor formation already during very early embryonal development.
本文给出了一份临床神经病理学报告,对象是一名4个月大的女孩,她在4周大时首次被发现头部增大。尸检发现一个巨大的颅内肿瘤,组织学上为同形性、主要为毛细胞型星形细胞瘤,无提示快速生长的形态学特征。这种先天性星形细胞瘤在大小上似乎很独特,提示肿瘤在胚胎发育极早期就已形成。
