Case Report - Extranasal glial heterotopia: Case report
S. Mohanty, K. Das, M. A. Correa, A. J. D'Cruz
Abstract
Glial heterotopia or the occurrence of isolated non-teratomatous extracranial glial tissue is rare. We report a neonate with extensive extranasal glial heterotopia involving the left buccopharyngeal region, palate and base of the skull and presenting with respiratory distress and a bleeding oral mass. A staged operative approach was adopted to excise the lesion. The literature on the subject is briefly reviewed.
Keywords
