Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a common brain tumor, rarely occurs within the ventricles. This case report details an additional rare instance of intraventricular GBM, contributing to the limited existing literature.
Area of Science:
- Neuro-oncology
- Neurosurgery
- Pathology
Background:
- Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most prevalent primary malignant brain tumor.
- Purely intraventricular GBM is exceptionally rare, with fewer than 20 cases documented globally.
- This rarity presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in neurosurgical practice.
