case_images: (A) Case 1. Preoperative T1-weighted brain MRI scan showed a hypointense and homogenous mass within the left MO without Gadolinium enhancement. (B) The postoperative T1-weighted brain MRI scan showed complete resection of the tumor.

case_images: (A) Case 2. Preoperative T1-weighted MRI scans showed a wider MO due to a hypointense heterogeneous mass with necrosis or polimicrocystic component. Gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MRI scans demonstrated a heterogeneous enhancing mass. (B) T1-weighted brain MRI scans showed postoperative result.
