2026-06-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Central nervous system germ cell tumors (CNS GCTs) are exceptionally rare in patients aged 60 years or older. We report a 61-year-old man with weight loss and endocrine dysfunction over 20 months, in whom magnetic resonance imaging revealed enhancing lesions including the suprasellar and sellar regions, optic tracts, ventricular walls, corpus callosum, and dorsal medulla.
