Gliomatosis Cerebri is a rare brain tumor. There is diversity of presentation in cases due to the nature of its diffuse involvement. Very recently, on February 2016 in the department of Paediatric Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh we encountered a 10 years old boy who initially mimicked as tuberculoma of brain but later on diagnosed as Gliomatosis Cerebri on the basis of brain MRI and brain biopsy. Prognosis is always very gloomy regardless of the treatment strategy adopted. The boy died within one year after confirmation of diagnosis even after getting adequate medical management and radiation therapy.
大脑胶质瘤病是一种罕见的脑肿瘤。由于其弥漫性累及的性质,病例表现具有多样性。就在最近,2016年2月,在孟加拉国达卡的班加班杜·谢赫·穆吉布医科大学(BSMMU)儿科神经科,我们接诊了一名10岁男孩,他最初被误诊为脑结核瘤,但后来根据脑部磁共振成像(MRI)和脑活检被诊断为大脑胶质瘤病。无论采取何种治疗策略,预后总是非常悲观。即使在得到充分的医疗管理和放射治疗后,该男孩在确诊后一年内仍死亡。
