A Case of Extracranial Metastasis of Glioblastoma Multiforme Seen on Bone Scintigraphy.

Abstract

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system in adults. It is known for its devastating intracranial progress thus attributing to its very short survival. Here, we report a case of 37-year-old female with GBM post surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy who presented with pain in right hip region. She was referred to our department for evaluation of skeletal metastasis. Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scan revealed an expansile lesion involving the right iliac blade along with extensive lytic bony lesions throughout the axial skeleton.
