Resumen

Se describe un nuevo caso de astroblastoma cerebral puro de bajo grado, considerándose la definición y las características clínicas, de neuroimagen, intraoperatorias y anatomopatológicas de este tipo de tumor poco frecuente. Analizamos las diferencias encontradas en la literatura respecto a los hallazgos inmunohistoquími-cos, genéticos y de microscopía electrónica. Llamamos la atención sobre la ausencia de consenso en cuanto al tratamiento de este tipo de tumor. Finalmente citamos las diferentes hipótesis sobre su origen.

Summary

We report a new case of low grade astroblastoma of pure type and consider the definition and the clinical, neuroimaging, intraoperative and pathological charac-teristics of this type of uncommon intracranial tumour. We analyse the differences found in the literature con-cerning the immunochemistry, genetics and electron microscopy. We point out the lack of protocols for treat-ment of this type of intracranial tumour, and comment the various hypothesis of its origin.
