Overview
Natural History
- Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma tends to grow slowly and are less likely to spread.[1]
- If left untreated, patients with subependymal giant cell astrocytoma may progress to cause occlusion of the foramen of Monro, with subsequent elevated intracranial pressure and hydrocephalus, thus necessitating intervention.
