Extraventricular neurocytoma (EVN) is a rare neuronal tumor with a marked tendency towards ganglionic or glial differentiation. Although EVN commonly occurs in young adults, congenital cases are extremely rare, and standardized therapeutic strategies remain undetermined. The presence of atypical features such as increased mitotic activity on histological analysis is correlated with a higher rate of recurrence and poor prognosis.

We report a case of neurocytoma originating from cranial nerve V. A 53-year-old female patient presented with a 20-day history of right frontotemporal facial paresthesia and pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 2.

Neurocytomas are neuronal tumors that are usually intraventricular. Rare cases can arise from extraventricular sites. To our knowledge, only 29 cases of extraventricular neurocytoma of the sellar region (EVNSR) have been reported in the literature.

Purpose: Even though BRAF fusions are increasingly detected in standard multigene next-generation sequencing panels, few reports have explored their structure and impact on clinical course.
Experimental Design: We collected data from patients with BRAF fusion-positive cancers identified through a genotyping protocol of 97,024 samples. Fusions were characterized and reviewed for oncogenic potential (in-frame status, non-BRAF partner gene, and intact BRAF kinase domain).

We present a patient with an intraventricular hemorrhage. Imaging identified a left atrial intraventricular mass and a vague adjacent second periventricular cystic lesion. A guided trans-sulcal approach via a left parietal craniotomy resulted in a gross total resection of both lesions.
