The authors present a rare case of a brainstem ganglioglioma in an 11-year-old boy who was referred to their hospital complaining of episodes of blurry vision, loss of memory, gait disturbances, and morning headache with vomiting, lasting for over a month. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans revealed a mass on the dorsal surface of the brainstem, compressing the brainstem and producing secondary obstructive hydrocephalus. The patient was operated upon, and the histopathology revealed the presence of a ganglioglioma grade II (World Health Organization classification). On follow-up examination after 1 year, a minor gait imbalance was the only finding. A total resection should be always attempted, where possible in brainstem gangliogliomas. Close follow-up is mandatory, and re-resection or radiotherapy should be considered in case of tumor recurrence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0883073808319316","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,12,10]],"date-time":"2008-12-10T12:18:42Z","timestamp":1228911522000},"page":"1481-1483","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Brainstem Ganglioglioma"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Evriviadis","family":"Mpairamidis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Children's Hospital \u201cAgia Sofia,\" Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"George A.","family":"Alexiou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Children's Hospital \u201cAgia Sofia,\" Athens, Greece,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kalliopi","family":"Stefanaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital \u201cAgia Sofia,\" Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"George","family":"Sfakianos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, , Children's Hospital \u201cAgia Sofia,\" Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Neofytos","family":"Prodromou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, , Children's Hospital \u201cAgia Sofia,\" Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","first-page":"807","volume":"19","author":"Castillo M.","year":"1998","journal-title":"AJNR Am J Neuroradiol"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000028681"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000098835"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0090-3019(01)00618-8"},{"key":"atypb5","first-page":"790","volume":"16","author":"Blatt GL","year":"1995","journal-title":"AJNRAm J Neuroradiol"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1993.79.6.0867"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0090-3019(01)00618-8"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1984.60.2.0431"}],"container-title":["Journal of Child Neurology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0883073808319316","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0883073808319316","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T20:34:55Z","timestamp":1777494895000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0883073808319316"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,4]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2008,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0883073808319316"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0883073808319316","relation":{},"ISSN":["0883-0738","1708-8283"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0883-0738","type":"print"},{"value":"1708-8283","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,4]]}}}
