Relatively well-marginated mass lesion in right temporo-parietal lobe showing heterogeneously hyperintense signal on T2W images with hypo to intermediate signal on T1W images.
Case Discussion
This case did not show typical MR features of PXAs, and therefore we gave the differential of ganglioglioma and DNET as well. Histopathological examination together with immunohistochemistry confirmed pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma.
