Abstract

We present a rare case of T1- and T2-negative ventricular system tumor. Only FIESTA imaging revealed dissemination with multiple focal lesions of the third ventricle, its bottom and lateral walls, anterior horns of lateral ventricles, cerebellar vermis, cervical and lumbar spinal cord. The patient underwent transcortical endoscopic biopsy of the third ventricle tumor with simultaneous ventriculoperitoneal shunting. DNET was diagnosed, and radiotherapy was subsequently performed. Literature data on this issue were analyzed. To date, disseminated forms of DNET are extremely rare. X-ray features and morphological results allow us to establish the correct diagnosis and determine further treatment strategy.
