Abstract

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive form of primary brain tumor. The median survival time is 14 months. Extracranial metastases from GBM are even rare, with a reported frequency of only 0.44%. A rare case of GBM with bone metastases is presented in this paper. This is the first such case reported at Gujarat Cancer Research Institute, which is a radiotherapy center with maximum cancer patient load in India.
