Astroblastomas are rare, usually circumscribed, supratentorial tumors of young subjects and are characterized by a perivascular arrangement of the tumor cells. Their clinical behavior is unpredictable and their prognosis has been regarded as intermediate between that of astrocytomas and glioblastomas. A personal series of 23 astroblastomas was reviewed, adequate postoperative follow-up being available in 13 patients. Two distinct histological types were encountered: low-grade and high-grade. The low-grade type comprised tumors with better differentiated and more benign-appearing microscopical features. Five of the 8 patients with tumors of this type who were available for follow-up have survived from 3 to 20 years after treatment; in 1 patient the tumor converted into a fatal glioblastoma after 4 1/2 years. The high-grade type consisted of tumors with more anaplastic features. Three of the 4 patients with tumors of this type available for follow-up died after 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 years, the astroblastomas in 2 of them having converted into a glioblastoma and a gliosarcoma, respectively. One patient, however, has had an unexpected length of postoperative survival of 11 1/2 years. The best clinical results were obtained after total or subtotal resection of the tumor, followed by radiotherapy. The role of chemotherapy is still uncertain. This form of glioma illustrates the discrepancies that may sometimes be apparent between histopathological features and length of postoperative survival. The prognosis is also further complicated by the potential of the astroblastoma to convert into a more malignant type of glioma.

The histopathologic features of four cases of mixed capillary hemangioblastoma and glioma are described. In three cases, two of which arose in the cerebellum and one in the spinal cord, the hemangioblastic component may have originated from a neoplastic proliferation of the exuberant vascular stroma in a glial tumor. In a fourth case, a cerebellar hemangioblastoma was surrounded by a peripheral rim of atypical neoplastic-looking astrocytes (“reactive glioma”). The controversial concept of the “angioglioma” is reviewed, and it is proposed that the term be used to designate only true mixed tumors of glial and vascular tissue origin whose histologic features conform to the examples described in this report.

A case report of ectopic pituitary gland in the suprasellar region of a normal 39-year-old woman with persistent headaches is presented. The embryological development of the pituitary gland is briefly reviewed, with a discussion of the relevant literature. No previous report of normal pituitary tissue in a suprasellar location in the absence of tumor could be found.

Von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHLD) is characterized by a spectrum of benign and malignant tumors in the CNS and visceral organs. Rathkes cleft cysts are benign, nonneoplastic sellar lesions that are often asymptomatic. The authors report the case of twin sisters with VHLD Type 2C with radiographically similar sellar lesions. One twin required surgery for progressive visual loss. Pathological examination of resected tissue demonstrated Rathkes cleft cyst.
