Cerebellar liponeurocytoma: illustrative case
Cerebellar liponeurocytoma is a rare tumor requiring accurate histopathological differentiation to determine the appropriate treatment. Resection remains the mainstay of treatment, with postoperative radiotherapy potentially reducing recurrence. Multidisciplinary follow-up is crucial for managing residual symptoms and monitoring for recurrence. This case aligns with existing literature and underscores the importance of comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to improve patient outcomes. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24521.
