Abstract
Multiple intracranial tumors of different cell types are rare. We report a case of double primary intracranial tumors of different histologic types : oligodendroglioma, and pituitary adenoma. Von Recklinghausen's disease or other etiologic factors supposedly associated with multiple brain tumors were not recognized in this 36-year-old male patient.
