Abstract:
One case of multicentric glioblastoma multiforme is presented. On the brain CT scan, multiple lesions were found and cerebral metastases or brain abscesses were considered preoperatively. Multicentric glioblastoma multiforme is quite rare, but it should be considered when there is no evidence of extracranial primary malignant lesion.
