(a) Axial view showed lesion in parietal lobe with iso- or hypo-intensity on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, (b) Hyperintensity on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. (c) No remarkable contrast enhancement on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging after contrast-medium administration. (d) Remarkable keratosis and squamous epithelium with hemorrhage in tumor as arrows pointing in routine pathology (H and E staining, magnification, ×20).
