Abstract
- A rosette-forming glioneuronal tumor (RGNT) is a rare and slow-growing central nervous system tumor. This tumor is usually assessed by MRI during the follow-up period. RGNT can show alteration of contrast enhancement regardless of tumor growth. Here, we report a case of RGNT arising from pons which shows partial enhancement on initial MRI, smaller enhancement on follow-up MRI at 10 months, and totally disappeared at 18 months without any therapy. Keywords: Rosette-forming glioneuronal tumor, MRI, Contrast enhancement
