Extraneural metastases from glioblastoma are rare but can spread to the head and neck. This study presents two cases, highlighting potential mechanisms of extraneural tumor extension.

Area of Science:

  • Neuro-oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) rarely metastasizes outside the central nervous system.
  • Extraneural metastases require careful consideration in patient follow-up.

Observation:

  • Two cases of suspected extraneural glioblastoma spread to the head and neck region are presented.
  • One case showed documented metastatic adenopathy; the other had probable metastatic disease in a lymph node.

Findings:

  • Glioblastoma can spread to extracranial head and neck sites, including lymph nodes.
  • Routine imaging may detect these rare metastatic lesions.

Implications:

  • Awareness of extraneural spread is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning in glioblastoma patients.
