CEREBRAL EXOPHYTIC GLIOMA - A RARE CASE

Gliomas of the cerebral hemisphere are locally invasive tumors. They  infrequently grow  and  extend  exophytically   in  the  subarachnoid space  as  an  extraaxial  mass  lesion. Brainstem gliomas are known for exophytic growth however cerebral hemispheric gliomas with exophytic component are rarely seen. Hereby we report a case of low grade temporal glioma with exophytic extension (extraxial).
