Giant Cell Glioblastoma

Although other cases of grade III gangliogliomas and rare cases of grade IV gangliogliomas have been reported, the present case is exceptional in that, to our knowledge, it is the only report of a patient who presented initially with a composite grade [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Clinical presentation Giant cell glioblastomas are de novo lesions with symptoms at presentation similar to those of GBM. [prod.wiki.cns.org]

  • Shoulder Pain

    Thirty-two months later he developed headache and shoulder pain with symptoms of normal pressure hydrocephalus. Head CT showed ventriculomegaly and SAH. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Cervical Cord Compression

    Due to the possibility of a rapid clinical deterioration in patients with high cervical cord compression, the diagnosis of drop metastasis to the spine should be considered in patients with a previous history of supratentorial GBM who present with acute [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Generalized Seizure

    We report a case of GC-GBM in a 42-year-old male with 3 months history of generalized seizures. He also complained of headache accompanied by vomiting since 1 month. The intensity of headache had increased over last 7 days. [indianjcancer.com]

  • Cerebellar Sign

    Her gait was ataxic in nature and had positive cerebellar signs. Hermental status and other cranial nerve examinations were normal. [ruralneuropractice.com]

Neuroradiological workup revealed a large, high cervical compressive leptomeningeal mass consistent with a drop metastasis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Workups for common metastatic lesions from breast, lung, colon, and secondary central nervous system lymphoma were found to be negative. [ruralneuropractice.com]

Radiography: X-rays are not often used in the workup of a patient with a malignant glioblastoma. Nevertheless, when the tumor is very aggressive, with invasion of the skull bones, skull erosive changes can be demonstrated on a skull x-ray. [brain-surgery.com]

Detection of many of the molecular changes that underlie the development of gliomas and other BT can now be done by immunohistochemistry and is getting into the mainstream of the diagnostic workup of BT. [neuropathology-web.org]

Another potentially useful immunostain in the diagnostic workup of gliomas is OLIG2. [nature.com]

Patients were retrospectively identified through chart review, and data pertaining to patient demographics, treatment plans, and follow-up were extracted from existing medical records. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Consequently, the epidemiology, natural history, and factors associated with outcome are not well defined. Patients diagnosed with GC from 1988 through 2004 were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
