Terminalia arjuna also known as arjun or arjuna, is a member of Combretaceae family. Medicinal or therapeutic plant plays a crucial role to cure various diseases and Terminalia arjuna is one such therapeutic plant. This comprehensive review helps in studying various aspects like phytochemical, pharmacological, ethnomedical, phytological and clinical significance. Alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, glycosides and mineral ions present in different parts of the plant are discussed. Terminalia arjuna is used mainly in cardiovascular treatment, shows antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal properties.

Abstract Infratentorial glioneuronal neoplasms are overall quite rare and are more commonly low-grade with surgical excision usually being curative. Multiple distinct histologic entities have been described including rosette-forming glioneuronal tumor, papillary glioneuronal tumor, neurocytoma, dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum (Lhermitte-Duclos disease), cerebellar liponeurocytoma, and ganglioglioma. While each of these entities has distinct findings, in some instances a tumor may demonstrate overlapping histologic features with mixed components. Herein, we report 2 unusual adult cases of a fourth ventricular glioneuronal tumor with features of ganglioglioma and neurocytoma, with one coming from a surgical resection and one found incidentally at autopsy. To the best of our knowledge, this specific histologic combination has not previously been described. As such, the clinical significance is unknown although in both cases the neoplasms were circumscribed and appeared to be low grade. The presence of the gangliogliomatous component was of particular interest since these are extremely rare occurrences in the fourth ventricle and we provide a comprehensive review of infratentorial gangliogliomas.

As fetal intracranial vessels may persist into adulthood, knowledge of their anatomy and potential clinical and surgical complications should be borne in mind by the surgeon. A comprehensive review of these vessels, however, is not easily identified in the literature. Therefore, the present analysis was undertaken so that such information is available to the clinician and morphologist.
