Lhermitte-Duclos disease (dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma) is a rare disorder of uncertain pathogenesis characterized by disarrangement of the normal cerebellar laminar cytoarchitecture. A case of histopathologically confirmed Lhermitte-Duclos disease with characteristic imaging findings and successful surgical management is reported and our findings are discussed.
