Oligodendroglioma of the cerebellum.
Oligodendrogliomas make up about 3.9 to 8% of brain tumors and present commonly as lesions of the cerebral hemispheres. Such tumors are uncommon in the posterior fossa. We would like to record the case of a woman who presented with a cerebellar oligodendroglioma, has survived two operations and is well 13 years after the first operation.
