Axial CT scan shows an ill-defined heterogeneous (mostly cystic) mass in the parietal and temporal lobe of the left cerebral hemisphere with mild perifocal edema.
After IV administration of contrast mass shows peripheral (rim) enhancement with multiple cystic areas in the central part.
Case Discussion
Histopathology shows poorly differentiated, pleomorphic astrocytic cells with marked nuclear atypia. Diagnosis: Glioblastoma
Note: IDH mutation status is not provided in this case and according to the current (2016) WHO classification of CNS tumors, this tumor would, therefore, be designated as a glioblastoma NOS.
