Abstract
A 45 year old male presented with chronic headache for the last six months, with recent aggravation. The headache was holocranial in nature and not associated with vomiting, aura or any other neurological complaints. On examination, he had no neurological deficit. Contrast enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), was performed which revealed features suggestive of intraventricular neurocytoma with intraventricular hemorrhage. He underwent gross total excision of tumor after frontal craniotomy and through anterior transcallosal approach. Histopathology suggested a diagnosis of neurocytoma WHO grade II.
