title: Anaplastic temporal lobe ganglioglioma. Case report.
abstract: Clinical, histological and histochemical features of anaplastic temporal ganglioglioma in a 30-year-old woman are described. Short clinical course (preoperative 2 years, postoperative 6 months), anaplastic features of glial astrocytic component with scarce GFAP and negative vimentin immunostaining indicate aggressive character of the tumor. Ganglionic component is confirmed by the strong Con A affinity and discrete FN and NSE immunostaining.
