Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma: report of two cases with unconventional clinical presentations.

Clinical neuropathology - 1 Jan 2000

Vizcaíno M Adelita, Caccamo Dario V, Fox Ellen, Rodriguez Fausto J

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) is a rare astrocytic neoplasm with a relative circumscribed architecture that typically arises superficially in the cerebral hemispheres of teenagers and young adults. Our aim is to highlight unconventional clinical presentations of this distinct neoplasm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We report two cases of PXA with unconventional clinical features, including clinical,...
