Subtle magnetic resonance imaging differences in tegmental pilocytic astrocytomas as a caution against attempting gross-total resection: illustrative cases

BACKGROUND: Although surgery within the tegmentum of the midbrain is challenging, resection of tegmental pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs) is a standard treatment because this has been shown to outperform chemotherapy and radiotherapy in terms of long-term tumor control.
