<div style="text-align:justify;"> <span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Objective:</strong> To describe the histological and immunohistochemical findings observed when studying a dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma observed in a 33-year-old man with a history of Thyroid Cancer. <strong>Material and Methods:</strong> Radiological images (MRI) and histological and immunohistochemical preparations obtained from the cerebellar tissue were received in our laboratory. <strong>Results:</strong> A neoplasm constituted by aberrant-looking mature neurons was observed that showed negativity for the immunohistochemical markers of the PTEN protein, expression of the activity of the PTEN gene. <strong>Conclusions:</strong> Verify the diagnosis of a rare entity, clearly related in scientific publications with Cowden’s Syndrome.</span> </div>
