Abstract:
A rare case of a giant-celled glioblastoma arised from the intracranial portion of the right frontal base is presented. Clinical presentation was that of increased intracranial pressure with bilateral optic papilledema. Skull X-rays showed an erosion of the right orbital roof. Right carotid angiogram confirmed the presence of a tumor in the frontal base.
