Abstract
|
|
|
|
Giant cell glioblastomas are defined as glioblastomas with marked predominance of bizarre and mutinucleated giant cells. They represent about 5% of all glioblastomas and can occur at any site of the central nervous system. Giant cell glioblastomas show a prolonged survival period compared with usual histological type of glioblastomas. The authors report a 23-year-old patient who had undergone resection and adjuvant radio-chemotherapy for a giant cell glioblastoma on left frontal lobe. The patient survived for 3.9 years.
