Abstract
A case of glioblastoma multiforme of themedulla oblongata in a 13-year-old girl is reported. Clinical features included two-month evolution, involvement of cranial nerves, tetraplegia and sudden respiratory arrest. Anatomically, a necrotizing glioblastoma multiforme involving the lower half of the medulla and the neighboring cervical cord was found. 18 examples of primary glioblastoma of theoblongata were collected from the literature, but it is suggested that several others are probably included, though not emphasized, in the numerous published series of brain stem gliomas.
