Epithelioid glioblastoma presenting as massive intracerebral hemorrhage: Case report and review of the literature

摘要

Background:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a malignant transformation of glial tissue, which presents as intradural, intraaxial lesions with heterogenous contrast enhancement and mass effect. Intratumoral hemorrhage is a common finding in GBM although it is frequently asymptomatic. Massive, symptomatic, intratumoral hemorrhage is uncommon and poses a diagnostic challenge.
