Abstract
-
Chordoid glioma is an uncommon low-grade tumor of the third ventricle with histologic features of a chordoma and immunolabeling for glial fibrillary acid protein. We present a rare case of a patient with a chordoid glioma of the third ventricle and review the literature regarding this tumor's clinical, radiological and pathologic aspects.
