Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma with high proliferation index: report of a case. Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand. 2005 Dec; 88(12): 1962-5http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/40917Chotmaihet Thangphaet.Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma (DIG) is an uncommon neuroepithelial tumor associated with epilepsy, mostly occurring in the first 2 years of life. Most DIGs carry good prognosis after complete resection, even when a primitive cellular element is present. However a few examples of DIG with histologic anaplasia have recently been reported, and one demonstrated an unusual aggressive behavior. The authors describe herein a DIG with high Ki-67 proliferation index (30%) in a 10-month-old male infant with epilepsy, but with an excellent prognosis after total tumor resection.engBrain Neoplasms --chemistryCell ProliferationGanglioglioma --chemistryHumansInfantKi-67 Antigen --analysisMaleCase Reports
