| ABSTRACT |
|
When the primary tumor is under apparent control, spinal metastases from cerebral glioblastoma via the cerebrospinal pathway are rarely detected clinically. The authors report the case of one adult female patient with cerebral glioblastma who had undergone radiation therapy after the removal of intracranial glioblastoma; nine months after surgery she developed spinal sumptoms connected with spinal seeding, without neurological findings of pirmary tumor recurrence. When she returned to hospital there was no localized sign to suggest that the intracranial lesion might have recurred. |
