Abhishek Sharma*, Jayant Kumar, Vikas Thakur and Kirti Parmar

ABSTRACT

Ependymomas are the tumors that most commonly arise next to the ependyma-lined ventricular system. Ependymomas account for about 2–6% of CNS tumors and 60–70% of spinal.[1] Among the ependymomas, supratentorial tumours are rare ones. These are more common in children < 3 years of age. In adults, ependymomas are common in spinal cord. This report presents a 23 years old female with ependymoma of the left lateral ventricle.
