摘要：

Background: The incidence of primary intracranial germ cell tumors (GCTs) is relatively low comparing to other ones. Embryonal carcinoma (EC) is an especially rare subtype and the diagnosis presents to be a challenge. Few cases have been reported. Case presentation: We report a case of intracranial EC located in the temporal lobe with malignant tumor cells occasionally detected by the cytology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The pathology confirmed the diagnosis after the patient underwent tumor resection. Conclusion: This is the first report about one case of intracranial primary EC located in the temporal lobe. It is also the first report of tumor cells of EC detected in the CSF.
