The results of reported cases and the literature review emphasize the role of MR imaging in the diagnosis of frontal lobe GTVRS. Beyond diagnostic consideration, GTVRS may have prognostic value and often indicate a "don't touch lesion" albeit requiring further consideration on a case-to-case basis. Familiarity with this entity improves diagnostic accuracy and, prevents accidental diagnosis of any neoplasm or other diseases.
