1 In rare cases tumors with neurocytoma features may involve the brain parenchyma or spinal cord and are referred to as extraventricular central neurocytomas. These have a worse prognosis.

2 Central neurocytoma (CN) is a rare but usually benign cerebral intraventricular tumor of young adults which can be confused with oligodendroglioma and other neoplasms.

3 Objective: To study the imaging features of central neurocytoma and analysis the reason of misdiagnosis, in order to improve the knowledge and diagnosis.

4 Central neurocytoma is a rare intraventricular tumor of the central nervous system comprising 0.25 to 0.5% of all brain tumors.

5 Another diagnostic challenge on imaging is the central neurocytoma, a recently described tumor that was routinely mistaken for an intraventricular oligodendroglioma on histologic analysis.

6 He resumed his daily activities and returned to full-time employment. Central neurocytoma is a rare hemorrhagic brain tumor in adults.

7 In the differential diagnosis of tumors occurring in the 2/3 of the lateral ventricle the possibility of central neurocytoma should be also taken into consideration.

8 Objective To study the diagnosis,[] treatment and prognosis of central neurocytoma (CN).

9 Results Among 17 cases of ventricle tumors, 7 cases were diagnosed as central neurocytoma.

10 Conclusion The prognosis is good in the patients with the central neurocytoma treated by the microsurgery and postoperative radiotherapy.

11 Objective To analyze CT and MRI features of central neurocytoma in lateral ventricle.

12 Objective To discuss the clinical manifestations, pathologic changes of central neurocytoma and its features on magnetic resonance imaging( MRI).

13 Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of central neurocytoma .
