Descriptor ganglioglioma
Scope note: Tumores indolentes raros constituidos por células neuronales y gliales neoplásicas, que suelen observarse en niños y adultos jóvenes. Las lesiones benignas tienden a estar asociadas a una supervivencia larga, a menos que el tumor degenere en una forma histológicamente maligna. Tienden a afectar al nervio óptico y a la sustancia blanca del cerebro y de la médula espinal.

Scope note: Rare indolent tumors comprised of neoplastic glial and neuronal cells which occur primarily in children and young adults. Benign lesions tend to be associated with long survival unless the tumor degenerates into a histologically malignant form. They tend to occur in the optic nerve and white matter of the brain and spinal cord.
