Intratumoral bleeding c an be the sole and first manifestation of glioblastoma in chil dren. It is difficult to say that the events like dehydration and infecti on can precipitate such bleeding in tumor. It should be emphasized that possibility of tumoral bleeding should be kept in mind while evaluating young patient with spontaneous supratentorial intracranial hemorrhage with negative angiogram and should be treated on an emergency basis. We are reporting a case of glioblastoma in a patient aged 17 years with clinical and radiological featur es suggestive of cortical venous thrombosis.
