Abstract:
The management of pineal region tumor remains controversial. This paper reports a case of pineocytoma which was attempted to improve treatment planning by the use of clinical features, computerized tomography, and markers for germ-cell tumor. A presumptive diagnosis could be made and this tumor less likely to respond to radiotherapy was subjected to primary surgery.
