Abstract

Background: Chordoid glioma is a rare neoplasm. amsidered a low-grade neoplasm, due to its location in the hypothalamus and anterior third ventdcle, it presents a challenge for neurosurgeons to treat it adequately with a complete resection without significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. case Description:A 42 year dd male patient presented with a one year history of mayor depressive disorder with psy-chotic features assxiated with generalized tonic clonic seizures. Brain MRI with contrast revealed a suprawIlar mass ex-binding into the third ventricle. The mass was approached through an interhemispheric transcallosal transvertricular sibforniceal approache. Pathology revealed a Chordoid Glionsa. The patients had a complicated post operative period with development of diabetes insipidus followed by intractable hy-ponatremia and died from malignant train edenta.,Condusicms: Chordoid glioma is a tare neoplasms incorporated in 2000 into the World Health Crganization (WHO) classification. Due to its rarity it is seldom considered in the differential diagnosis of sr prasellar masses. Moreover its unusual presentation and difficult lora tion present a challenge for surgical and medical management.
