Intracranial infantile hemangiopericytoma.
Hemangiopericytoma (HP) is a rare vascular tumor that usually occurs in adults, but 10% occur in children. Tumors occurring in the first year of life are even more rare and are referred to as infantile hemangiopericytoma. In this article, we report the imaging, operative, and pathological findings in a patient with an infantile HP.
