ABSTRACT
A case of frontal ganglioglioma coexisting with pituitary adenoma is reported. A 37-year-old male presented with chief complaint of headache for 2 months. A neurological examination of the patient revealed no deficit. Brain MRI showed a well enhanced lobulated mass on left frontal lobe and another homogeneously enhanced mass on intrasellar and suprasellar portion. The frontal mass was grayish in color and rubbery hard in consistency on operative field, having relatively good boundary from the adjacent normal brain tissue. The sellar mass was 3X3cm in size and compressed optic chiasm. Histological diagnosis of frontal mass was ganglioglioma and sella mass showed typical features of pituitary adenoma.
