Ependymoma is the most frequent intramedullary tumour in adults (but accounts for only 10-12% of pediatric central nervous system tumours), and can be benign or anaplastic. Ependymoma arise from the ependymal cells of the cerebral ventricles, corticle rests and central canal of the spinal cord, and manifest with variable symptoms such headache, vomiting, seizures, focal neurological signs and loss of vision and that can cause obstructive hydrocephalus in some cases.
