Gangliogliomas are rare tumors of the central nervous system, composed of neoplastic ganglion cells and neoplastic glial cells. They are characterized by slow growing, low incidence of malignancy, surgically curable, and usually occurred in children and young adults. We report a case of ganglioglioma occurred in 21 year-old male which radiological findings were compatible with the malignancy but histologically diagnosed as benign, with review of literatures.
