Microscopically the tumour shows pleomorphism without any evidence of necrosis and vascular endothelial proliferation. Tumour cells contain intracytoplasmic fat. The present case is a 20 years old male who presented with history of Grand Mal seizures and the CT scan showed a tumour in the supratentorial region. Histopathologically tumour turned out to be a PXA.
