3) Differential imaging considerations, including hemangioblastoma, glial tumor, primitive neuroectodermal tumor , subacute infarct, cerebellitis, or tumefactive demyelination are limited by the pathognomonic appearance on MRI, though recently there have been several case reports of infiltrating medulloblastoma mimicking Lhermitte-Duclos disease in both pediatric and adult patients.

Unlike glia, glial tumor cells are excitable, expressing voltage-gated sodium channels that generate spikes.

Seizures rarely due to brain tumors, but do occur

It is a rare glial tumor that usually appears submucosally as a pedunculated mass in the midline, attached to the nasal septum.

Focal spinal cord lesions in children: a practical approach to differential diagnosis

The discovery of an IDH mutation or H3 mutation in a glial tumor argues strongly against the diagnosis of a poorly infiltrative glioma.

The lesion, despite some similarities (clusters of voluminous neurons with thick bundles of nerve cell processes) is completely different from a tumoral ganglioneuroma or a cerebellar ganglioglioma in which variable architecture discloses proliferation of both abnormal neurons and glial tumor cells.

Lhermitte-Duclos disease-intraoperative cytological findings of a rare entity

Synaptophysin or neuron-specific enolase positivity on immunohistochemistry, or the presence of typical or abortive synapses, neurosecretory granules or neuritic processes on ultrastructural examination, demonstrate the neuronal lineage of the tumor cells, not found in glial tumor and support the diagnosis of CN (p.
