A cases of gliomatosis cerebri in a 61-year-old woman is reported. She was admitted to our hospital in 1992 with a 2-year history of dementia, left-sided hemiparesis, and headache. A brain computerized tomography(CT) scan showed a round isodense

right temporo-parieto-occipital region. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) using T2 weighed image(WI) revealed the ill-defined low signal with bright high signal on affected region. Right temporal cranitomy and subtotal tumor removal were performed.
