Abstract
Conclusion This case shows the unusual manifestation of a primary intracerebral Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, which begins as a solid mass around the sellar region and shows a remarkable extension as a flat lining of inner and outer liquor spaces. Stereotactic brain biopsy technique today is a valuable high tech tool to clarify intracerebral tumorous lesions with a minimum of risk for the patient and with the possibility to perform all necessary tissue investigations. from 35te Tagung der Pathologen am Oberrhein/35th Meeting of Pathologists of the Upper Rhine Region (PATOR) The Institute of Pathology, University Hospital Freiburg, Germany. 1 July 2006
