Abstract

A patient with a posterior fossa ependymoma who has survived for over 49 years is presented. Inspection of the original specimen from 1936 and comparison to subsequent biopsies show no change in the benign morphology of the tumor. This case is unique not only in the patient's length of survival, but also in the sequential histological examination of the tumor. (Neurosurgery 18:451-453, 1986)
