Abstract

Two supratentorial desmoplastic gangliogliomas arising in a 15-year-old boy and a 25-year-old man are reported. Both tumors reached the brain surface and exhibited large cysts. They showed intense desmoplasia and tumor cells of astrocytic and ganglionic differentiation. In one case the ganglionic nature was only demonstrable by immunohistochemistry. Such neoplasms can no longer be regarded as exclusively infantile brain tumors.
