An oligo astrocytoma with widespread calcification along axonal fibres
Abstract
A rare case of a young man with a diffusely calcified oligo astrocytoma in right parieto occipital region, which spread along the axonal fibres into right temporal lobe and to the left parietal lobe is presented. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated the extent of the lesion. The mass was partially resected.
