Abstract:
The authors encountered a case of gliosarcoma with hemorrhage arising in the left frontotemporal lobe of a 34-year old woman who five months previously had undergone surgery for an ICH in the same lobe. On CT brain scan, we could a slight hyperdense tumor with irregular enhancement could be detected, and perilesional edema and obvious mass effect were also noted. The tumor was firm and surgically,its margine was somewhat poor. On pathologic and histochemical study, the presence of a gliosarcoma was confirmed.
