Gangliogliomas are uncommon intracranial tumors that include neoplastic and abnormal ganglion cells, and show positive immunohistochemical staining for GFAP and syn. This type of lesion occurs more frequently in the temporal lobe than in other areas; they are extremely rare in the suprasellar region. To the best of our knowledge, including our case, 19 cases of GGs have been found in the suprasellar region. Among them, five tumors invaded the optic nerve, nine tumors invaded the optic chiasm, one tumor invaded the optic tract, and two tumors invaded the entire optic chiasmal hypothalamic pathway. In the present study, we describe the first case of suprasellar GGs arising from the third ventricle floor that was removed through the endoscopic endonasal approach. In addition, we summarize the clinical characteristics of GGs, such as age of onset, gender distribution, MRI signs, main clinical symptoms, and treatment methods for GG cases.
