초록

Astrocytoma in the thalamus is not so frequent in incidence (1%). Moreover, bilateral thalamic tumor is rare. Certain tumors of the thalamus are considered resectable but most of thalamic tumors are thought to be untouchable. Bilateral thalamic astrocytoma with hydrocephalus was diagnosed by stereotactic biopsy and ventriculo-peritoneal shunt operation was done with result of improvement. We report a case of astrocytoma in the bilateral thalamus with literature review.
