Giant cell glioblastoma (GCG) is a subtype of Glioblastoma multiforme that is rare in incidence and distinct in features and histopathological examination. It is reported to have better prognosis than common glioblastomas. The incidence of GCG in children is even more rare. We report a case of GCG in a 10-year-old boy along with a review of the relevant literature focusing on the differentiating points from common glioblastoma.
巨细胞胶质母细胞瘤（GCG）是多形性胶质母细胞瘤的一种亚型，发病率较低，特征和组织病理学检查均有独特之处。据报道，其预后比普通胶质母细胞瘤更好。GCG在儿童中的发病率更为罕见。我们报告一例10岁男孩患巨细胞胶质母细胞瘤的病例，并对相关文献进行综述，重点关注其与普通胶质母细胞瘤的鉴别要点。
