A rare case of cerebellar pilomyxoid astrocytoma associated with neurofibromatosis-1 in a young female; case report highlighting immunohistochemical features
Indian J Pathol Microbiol. 2021 Apr-Jun;64(2):354-357. doi: 10.4103/IJPM.IJPM_209_20.ABSTRACTPilomyxoid astrocytoma (PMA), a distinct clinico-histopathological entity in the World Health Organization classification 2007, tends to be locally aggressive, with higher chance of leptomeningeal dissemination, recurrence, and poor prognosis. PMA is generally seen in young children and tend to occur in the hypothalamic-chiasmatic region. Their presence in other parts of the brain in the non pediatric age group is uncommon. To the best of our knowledge we are presenting first case of cerebellar PMA associated with neurofibromatosis...

Histological features in pediatric central nervous system tumors with FGFR alterations.
CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric FGFR-fused CNS tumors demonstrate histologic features similar to their adult counterparts but also exhibit significant morphologic variability. As such, this histologic variability prevents the prediction of FGFR fusion and necessitates molecular testing for the identification of this alteration.

Visual acuity loss and sixth nerve palsy as the only manifestations of slit ventricle syndrome.
Authors: Asensio-Sánchez VM, Pacheco-Callirgos GE, Valentín-Bravo J, García-Onrubia L
Abstract
The case is presented of a girl diagnosed with obstructive hydrocephalus due to pilomyxoid astrocytoma, which required a ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) at the age of 5 years and 10 months. Two months later, magnetic resonance imaging of the brain did not show ventriculomegaly or other signs of increased intracranial pressure. At the age of 6 years and 2 months, a rapid onset of bilateral visual acuity loss developed and she was diagnosed with slit ventricle syndrome. Despite valve revisions of the VPS, she d...
