NEURONAL AND GLIONEURONAL TUMORS Ependymoma The ependymoma has never been particularly controversial from its original recognition as a distinct tumor type by Mallory (1902). In Mallory’s article he calls attention to Weigert’s 1890 article describing not only a stain for glial cells but also the characterization of granules in ependymal cells that Weigert called ‘Körnchen’ and ‘Punktierung’ and that other German investigators (according to Bailey, 1924) called ‘Blepharoplasten’ that were located at the base of the cilia.
