COMPOSITE PLEOMORPHIC XANTHOASTROCYTOMA-GANGLIOGLIOMA; ASSESSING AND ADDRESSING THE DILEMMA OF DIFFERENTIAL EXPRESSION OF NEURONAL MARKERS: CASE REPORT WITH DIAGNOSTIC PERSPECTIVE

Composite pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma-ganglioglioma; assessing and addressing the dilemma of differential expression of neuronal markers: Case report with diagnostic perspective

We report the case of a 5-year-old male child presenting with seizures for 4 months.Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cortical-based solid cystic lesion in the right parietal lobe.Histopathological examination showed a tumour comprised of spindled glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP) positive neoplastic cells interspersed with bizarre ple
