Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma with calcification.
Desmoplastic infantile gangliogliomas (DIGs) are rare intracranial, cystic tumors, usually detected within the first 2 years of life. Histologically, these tumors are characterized by intense desmoplasia and a divergent astrocytic and neuronal differentiation. Less than 60 well-documented cases of this extremely rare tumor are reported in the literature. We present the case of a 10-month-old ma...

The patients were all infants who presented with large tumors that showed evidence of glial and ganglionic differentiation accompanied by an extreme desmoplastic reaction. Routinely, the prognosis was excellent following either partial or complete tu...

These tumors are generally localised in parietal or temporal lobes, present as a large cystic lesion with peripheral contrast enhancement. They also have characteristic histological features: extensive desmo...
