Résumé
Gangliogliomas are a relatively rare neoplasm with a major incidence in the pediatric population. As the temporal lobes are the most common site, patients usually present with seizures. We report the case of a 9-year-old child with an extensive suprasellar ganglioglioma presenting with a cerebral infarction due to direct compression of the medium cerebral artery. Suprasellar lesions can compress adjacent vascular structures, so an accurate diagnosis is necessary for an early treatment.

BACKGROUND
Gangliogliomas are a relatively rare neoplasm with a major incidence in the pediatric population. As the temporal lobes are the most common site, patients usually present with seizures.
CASE REPORT
We report the case of a 9-year-old child with an extensive suprasellar ganglioglioma presenting with a cerebral infarction due to direct compression of the medium cerebral artery.
CONCLUSIONS
Suprasellar lesions can compress adjacent vascular structures, so an accurate diagnosis is necessary for an early treatment.
