中枢神经细胞瘤是一种罕见的原发性中枢神经系统肿瘤。由于其主要位于侧脑室内，因此它属于脑室内肿瘤。CN主要发生在年轻人周围的第三个十年的生活，几乎五分之一的情况下是18岁以下的儿童。ObjectivesThe作者提出了三例患者的组织病理学证实CN，强调诊断成像问题。关于鉴别诊断和临床和治疗方面的文献综述也presented.ConclusionLiterature报告CN包括最有可能的病例报告，小队列的患者，和荟萃分析研究，由于这种肿瘤的发病率普遍较低。在目前的论文中，作者总结了这种罕见疾病的最新知识，以他们自己的观察为背景。应将CN列入脑室内肿瘤，特别是位于侧脑室的脑室内肿瘤的鉴别诊断列表。
BackgroundCentral neurocytoma (CN) represents a rare, relatively recently described primary central nervous system tumor. It ranks among intraventricular tumors due to its predominant location within the lateral brain ventricles. CN occurs mostly in young adults around the 3rd decade of life; almost a fifth of the cases are children under 18 years of age.ObjectivesThe authors present three cases of patients with histopathologically confirmed CN, emphasizing diagnostic imaging issues. A review of the literature concerning differential diagnosis and clinical and therapeutic aspects is also presented.ConclusionLiterature reports of CN comprise most likely case reports, small cohorts of patients, and meta-analytic studies due to the generally low incidence of this tumor. In the current paper, the authors summarize up-to-date knowledge of this rare disease on the background of their own observations. CN should be included in the list for differential diagnostics of intraventricular brain tumors, especially those located in lateral ventricles.
