Abstract
A 6-year-old boy was referred with symptoms of right partial
ptosis, blurred vision and a two-week history of poor coordination and
frequent falls. No symptoms of raised intracranial pressure were
demonstrated. Imaging showed a large sella mass with extension into the
posterior fossa and suprasellar region, suggestive of a
craniopharyngioma. Histopathological examination of the post-surgical
resection specimen revealed a small blue cell tumor consistent with a
medulloblastoma. This case aims to highlight a posterior fossa tumor
with an unusual spread and thus clinical presentation.
