Case history: multicentric glioma with involvement of the optic chiasm

Michael Synowitz et al. Clin Neurol Neurosurg. 2002 Dec.

Abstract

The case is reported of a man, aged 68, with a right-sided temporal glioblastoma multiform and a left sided chiasmal anaplastic glioma, as well as an occipital tumor, presumably of glial nature. The patient had a complete prostatectomy of adenocarcinoma a year before. The coincidence of multicentric gliomas and prostate cancer is briefly discussed.
