Background: A previous Phase II clinical trial, conducted from 1995 to 2003, evaluated CNS germ cell tumors (GCTs) using a three-group treatment stratification based on histopathology. The primary objective of the study was to assess the long-term efficacy of standardized treatment regimens, while the secondary objective focused on identifying associated long-term complications.
Methods: Total 228 patients were classified into three groups for treatment: germinoma (n=161), intermediate prognosis (n=38), and poor prognosis (n=28), excluding one mature teratoma case.

In this report, we provide a case of a 35-year-old male patient who experienced severe headaches, double vision, paralysis of the left abducens nerve, trigeminal neuralgia, nausea, and vomiting. The cerebral MRI showed an intensely gadolinophilic lesion following the left internal carotid artery route from the petrous canal; it also caused an internal deviation of the cavernous route of the internal carotid artery with a fluid heterogeneous area that pushed the cavernous dura mater (including the Gasser ganglion) on the free cisternal route of the trigeminal nerve.
