Abstract

Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma (DIG) and supratentorial giant cerebral aneurysm are each extremely rare entities in infants. Here, we present the case of an 8-day old boy who had both of these conditions concurrently. To our knowledge, there is no previous case reported of a patient with coexisting DIG and giant aneurysm.
