متن کاملThe Clinical Characteristics of Subependymal Giant Cell Astrocytoma: Five Cases
In this study, we reviewed the clinical characteristics of five cases of subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) at our hospital between May 1997 and July 2012. The median age was 18 years old (range, 8 to 26). The clinical symptoms were presented as seizure in two patients and headache in three patients.
