RESUMO
Ependymomas are glial series tumours that can occur throughout the neural axis, usually in close proximity to the ventricles or central canal. While the fourth ventricle is a common location for ependymoma, we present a rare case of an entirely intraparenchymal infratentorial tumour, remote from the ventricular surface, and discuss the imaging characteristics that may suggest the diagnosis. The histological features, which remain identical despite the varied morphology of intraventricular versus intraparenchymal tumours, are also considered.
