Highlights • Central Neurocytomas are a rare intracranial tumour, often presenting with obstructive hydrocephalus.• Isolated lesions in the posterior third ventricle are an uncommon location for Central Neurocytomas.• An endoscopic approach to these allows for concurrent biopsy and therapeutic cerebrospinal fluid diversion.• Adjuvant Stereotactic Radiosurgery improves outcomes of survival and local control in subtotal resection.• Together, this is a viable treatment for deep-seated, posterior third ventricular Central Neurocytomas.
