Diffuse right frontal tumor with no enhacing in a 28yo woman. Gemistocytic astrocytoma Something to remember: * >20% gemistocytes are required to be considered a major tissue pattern * it's associated with a focal gain of chromosome 12p #Neuropath

Today's case: Low grade glial tumor with multiple calcifications (psammoma bodies) similar to "Asteroids" from the 1979-80's Atari 2600 Asteroid game. Would you agree? #neuropath

Methylation Case of the Week: 3 year old female patient with a intramedullary (C7 to T8) lesion. The diagnostic fusion was found. You won't need to believe in ASTROlogy to have a BLAST trying to diagnose this case. #pathology #neuropath #Pathtwitter
