- Astroblastoma is a rare brain tumor mainly affecting older children, typically found in the frontoparietal regions of the brain.
- A 32-year-old woman experienced a recurrence of her astroblastoma 21 years after it was initially removed and treated with radiation, now presenting with seizures and imaging showing significant tumor growth.
