  • Look Inside

Two cases of tumor of ependymal origin are reported.

The first case, 15-year-old boy, was admitted suffering from headache, somnolence and diabe-tes insipidus, having Precocious puberty and Parinaud'sign etc. From the characteristic ventriculographical findings, it was decided that the tumor was situated not only in the posterior portion of the third ventricle, but also in the lateral ventricular wall diffusely, which was verified by the autopsy. Histologically, the tumor was characteristic of the pinealomas, with the additional presence of ependymal cells, ependymal rosettes and perivascular palisades.

The second patients aged 19, male, was admi-tted because of headache, confusion, amnesia and diabetes insipidus, having bitemporal hemi-anopsia and primary optic atrophia. The au-thor diagnosed it clinically as a suprasellar tu-mor associated with panhypopituitarism. The autopsy revealed the tumor arising from sup-rasellar part of the third ventricle and exten-ded to the Sylvian aqueduct. It was a typical pinealoma histologically. The pineal body was normal in location, size and histology, but was surrounded by pinealomatous elements.
