Dysembryonic neuro-epithelial tumors.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Dysembryonic Neuro-Epithelial Tumors are mixed neuro-epithelial tumors affecting most commonly the temporal lobe. They usually result in epilepsy which is intractable in nature. Children and young adults are much more prone to exhibit these Dysembryonic Neuro-Epithelial Tumors. Case presentation Here, we present a case series of two male patients who presented to the department of radiodiagnosis at Dr. Vasant Rao Pawar Medical College and Research Centre for MRI evaluation with complaints of epilepsy. Conclusion: Dysembryonic Neuro-Epithelial Tumors are a mixed neuronal glial neoplasm, mainly affecting the temporal lobe and is a very common cause of epilepsy. They are usually benign tumors with no or mild contrast enhancement.
