Lipedematous scalp was first reported by Cornbleet in 1935, and is characterized by an increase in the thickness of scalp subcutaneous fat tissue without hair changes. We present a case of a 40-year-old female with a diffusely thickened scalp since birth. The lesion was soft, and movable without color changes or hair loss. Histopathologic features and magnetic resonance imaging findings were compatible with a diagnosis of lipedematous scalp involving almost the entire scalp.

In children, primary tumors of the third ventricle are uncommon. The majority of the lesion were infiltrating astrocytoma of the anterior portion of the third ventricle. Tumors within the third ventricle were benign, encapsulated, and respectable with good prognosis. But most surgerns have considered this tumors to be inoperable;accordingly shunting procedures followed by radiotherapy has been the treatment of choice. We recently experienced a case of astrocytoma which entirely filled the third ventricle with hemorrhage and reviewed the literatures.
