Overview

Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma was described as a lesion located in the caudothalamic groove having a size of >1 cm in any direction or a subependymal lesion that has shown serial growth on consecutive imaging regardless of size and location.

Historical Perspective

  • In 2012, experts at the International Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Consensus Conference described subependymal giant cell atroctyoma as a lesion located in the caudothalamic groove having a size of >1 cm in any direction or a subependymal lesion that has shown serial growth on consecutive imaging regardless of size and location.[1]
