A 10‐year‐old boy who was referred due to acute hydrocephalus symptoms was diagnosed as the first case of pediatric DLGNT in Iran. The results suggested that using shunting for hydrocephaly and anti‐seizure medicines, as well as chemotherapeutic agents, can be an effective treatment strategy for DLGNT. Although the patient was stable without a tumor recurrence for a limited follow‐up period of 22 months, further studies are expected. A case of DLGNT was reported for the first time from Iran. Pediatric DLGNT may be successfully managed with shunting for hydrocephaly and anti‐seizure medicines, as well as chemotherapeutic agents. The patient did not have a tumor recurrence for a follow‐up period of 22 months.
