Core Tip	Myxopapillary ependymoma (MPE) is a pathological grade I tumor that develops in the filum terminale. MPEs with anaplastic features are extremely rare; only 5 cases have shown malignancy when they relapsed. Here we report a case of MPE with anaplastic features in local late recurrence in a 46-year-old woman and review anaplastic MPE in the published literature. MPEs have the potential for malignant transformation after a long period of time despite being a pathological grade I tumor. Therefore, the possibility of malignant transformation of the MPE should be considered, and patients with MPE should be treated carefully and monitored over a long period of time.
