Info

There is a lobulated intraventricular mass expanding the body of the left lateral ventricle extending to the 3rd ventricle through the ipsilateral foramen of Monro. It appears isodense to the cortical grey matter, containing foci of calcification as well as cystic areas with heterogeneous enhancement on postcontrast images.

Case Discussion

CT features are suggestive of a central neurocytoma.
