Descriptor neurocitoma
Entry term(s) neurocitoma central
Scope note: Tumor cerebral benigno compuesto por elementos neurales que suelen surgir en el SEPTUM PELLUCIDUM y de las paredes de los ventrículos laterales. Las evaluaciones inmunohistoquímicas y por microscopía electrónica pueden revelar la expresión de la enolasa específica de las neuronas, de la sinaptofisina y células que contienen microtúbulos, gránulos neurosecretores y vesículas presinápticas.

Scope note: A benign brain tumor composed of neural elements which most often arise from the SEPTUM PELLUCIDUM and the walls of the lateral ventricles. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy evaluations may reveal expression of neuron specific enolase and synaptophysin and cells containing microtubuli, neurosecretory granules, and presynaptic vesicles.
