Subependymal giant cell<unk>  is a rare, benign brain tumor commonly associated with tuberous sclerosis, a genetic disorder. It is seen in about 10-20% of patients with tuberous sclerosis. It is predominantly seen in the pediatric population but can also occur in adults. It arises in the ventricles of the brain and can cause symptoms such as headache, change in vision, nausea, vomiting, though some patients remain asymptomatic. An MRI or CT scan can be used in the diagnosis of subependymal giant cell<unk> . Surgery is the main treatment strategy but pharmacological therapy may be used in cases where surgery is contraindicated.
