MRI Findings of Desmoplastic Infantile Ganglioglioma: A Case Report and Analysis
Desmoplastic infantile gangliogliomas (DIG) are rare intracranial tumors that predominantly affect children. They are characterized by a mixture of glial and neuronal components interspersed with abundant fibrous stroma and are typically located on the surface of the cerebral hemispheres. In this ca...

description | Desmoplastic infantile gangliogliomas (DIG) are rare intracranial tumors that predominantly affect children. They are characterized by a mixture of glial and neuronal components interspersed with abundant fibrous stroma and are typically located on the surface of the cerebral hemispheres. In this case report, we present a seven-year-old male child with a late presentation of DIG, which is typically diagnosed between zero and 60 months of age. We discuss the MRI findings, clinical symptoms, and differential diagnosis of DIG in patients with this central nervous system tumor. |
