Blindness from multiple cerebral gliomas mimicking metastatic brain disease

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Multiple brain lesions are usually due to metastatic spread. The authors describe an unusual case of a 56-year-old male presenting with visual loss secondary to multiple intracranial lesions, with infiltration of the optic chiasm and an incidental renal lesion. Open biopsy of the brain lesion confirmed glioblastoma multiforme. © The Neurosurgical Foundation.
