Abstract
We describe a 4-year-old girl with acute onset headaches and transient blindness who underwent surgical intervention, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy for an intracranial mass. This mass was pathologically confirmed as a primary intracranial ganglioneuroblastoma, a rare finding in the pediatric population. The literature on pediatric primary intracranial ganglioneuroblastoma is reviewed.
