Authors : Boudersa, Asma . Djedi Hanane .

Abstract

We report the case of a 43-year-old man who presented for recurrent, high-grade glioblastoma. Our 43-year-old patient was followed for a posterior right parietal glioblastoma (4.6 x 5.4 x 6.6 cm) of high grade (figure 1). He had undergone a macroscopically complete surgery in addition to concomitant radio-chemotherapy with Temozolomide (Stupp*). The patient had received one cure of Temozolomide as an adjuvant treatment before he relapsed, the cerebral MRI showed a right temporal-parietal tumor of 34 x 17 mm (figure 2) with another one of 45 x 40 x 68 mm in the right parietal fossa.
