Cortical parietal lesion with high T2 signal and low T1 signal demonstrates no enhancement. Prominent overlying skull remodeling noted. On T2 weighted images the lesion has a "bubbly" appearance, typical of DNETs.

Intraoperative images demonstrate the expansile mass on the surface of the brain with associated remodeling of the inner surface of the craniotomy.
Final histology: "Tumor neuroepitelial disembrioplastico" = translated as Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNET)

A great example of a DNET with surgical photos.
