Article Synopsis
- Tumors of the pineal gland are generally rare and historically categorized by either germ cell, glial, or neuronal origins, with no known cases combining glial and neuronal elements.
- A 78-year-old man presented with hydrocephalus and was diagnosed with a primary anaplastic glio-neuronal tumor after undergoing an endoscopic procedure for both treatment and biopsy.
- The tumor exhibited a mix of cellular characteristics suggesting both glial and neuronal sources, confirmed through immunostaining, marking this as the first documented case of its kind, and highlighting the need for further investigation into its implications for patient outcomes.
