brain stem gliomas are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms arising mostly in paediatric patients. tectal plate gliomas represent a particular type of brain stem tumours usually with a benign, indolent clinical course, presenting with signs of raised intracranial hipertension due to supra-tentorialhydrocep...

Benign intrinsic tumors arising in the dorsal midbrain have long been recognized as a potential cause of late-onset aqueductal stenosis. Where histopathological studies of such lesions have been performed, the majority have been reported to be low-grade gliomas. Because these tumors often present wi...
Tectal GliomaA subtype of brain stem gliomas, tectal gliomas, are the result of an abnormal growth of cells focused in the region of the brain stem between the aqueduct of Sylvius and the fourth ventricle...doi:10.1007/978-0-387-79948-3_160Robert RiderSpringer...
Background Tectal gliomas (TG) are slow-growing tumors and generally present with features of increased intracranial pressure.Dhandapani, SivashanmugamKarthigeyan, MadhivananSahoo, Sushanta K.Gupta, VivekPGIMER Dept Neurosurg Chandigarh 160012 IndiaChild's nervous system: ChNS : official journal of ...
Tectal gliomas (TG) are rare tumors occurring primarily in children but also found in adults during workup of various neurological symptoms. Surgery is not required in asymptomatic cases, so histopathological information is sparse. No consensus on timing of imaging surveillance or management has been...
Tectal gliomas (TG) are slow-growing tumors and generally present with features of increased intracranial pressure.We describe an unusual case of a young girl who presented with clinical triad of obesity, primary amenorrhea and central cord syndrome. The radiology unveiled a pentad of hydrocephalus,...
Objectives: Tectal gliomas are a distinctive form of brain stem tumor which are generally low-grade astrocytomas with an unusually benign behavior. Treatment includes observation of the lesion or shunting and diversion of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to relieve associated hydrocephalus. We aimed to ...
Pediatric tectal gliomas generally have a benign clinical course. However, some patients may present with non-communicating hydrocephalus needing endoscopic procedures. Historically, lasers have been used in neurosurgical procedures including neuroendoscopy, but their adoption was limited by a significant ...
