BARBELLA-APONTE, Rosa A; ROJAS-FERRER, Nohelia; GARCIA DE LA TORRE, JP e VERA-BERON, Roberto. Papillary pineal tumor: cyto-histological correlation. Case report. Revista médica Risaralda [online]. 2014, vol.20, n.1, pp.53-56. ISSN 0122-0667.
In the latest revision of the central nervous system tumors (CNS) of the World Health Organization (WHO), new entities has been described, as papillary tumor of the pineal region. This rare lesion has been identified in young adults. The diagnosis of these tumors is complex, depends on the location, age of onset and histological appearance. Histological characteristics have similarities with other lesions such as papillary ependymoma, papiloma / choroid plexus carcinoma. Cytologically have clear characteristics that can aid in the diagnosis through the smears on the intraoperative study. Certain criteria for recognize this important and simple diagnostic method has been the main motivation for the study of CNS rare entities, as our case, in addition to corroborating the necessary work of a multidisciplinary team.
