Abstract：
BACKGROUND:Symptomatic cerebral vasospasm may occur in the setting of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, or after anterior skull base surgery, but its occurrence is extremely rare in the background of glioma surgical resection. CASE DESCRIPTION:We present a rare case of symptomatic diffuse vasospasm, which is the fourth reported case of symptomatic vasospasm after temporal lobectomy and the third in the setting of a glial tumor. This patient, a 10-year-old boy, developed bilateral, progressive cerebral infarcts because of diffuse vasospasm after anteromesial temporal lobectomy for a left temporal ganglioglioma leading to significant morbidity. CONCLUSIONS:The risk factors, likely pathogenesis and the importance of early diagnosis and timely institution of treatment, in such cases are discussed in the background of relevant literature. The current case represents the first report of symptomatic diffuse vasospasm occuring after surgical resection of intracranial ganglioglioma in the Western literature.
