Learn About Ganglioglioma

What is the definition of Ganglioglioma?
A Ganglioglioma is a rare type of brain tumor, accounting for approximately 1% of all brain tumors. Gangliogliomas occur when a single cell in the brain starts to divide into more cells, forming a tumor. This can occur when the cell randomly acquires changes in genes that regulate how a cell divides. Most Gangliogliomas grow slowly and are considered benign. However, up to 10% of Gangliogliomas may grow more rapidly and become malignant, meaning the tumor affects the surrounding brain tissue.
What are the alternative names for Ganglioglioma?
  • Ganglioglioma
  • Mixed cell tumors containing both neural ganglionic cells and neural glial cell components
