ABSTRACT

Gliomatose cerebral (GC) é um raro padrão de crescimento dos gliomas cerebrais, que infiltra difusamente os hemisférios cerebrais e estruturas adjacentes. As características radiológicas e histopatológicas são fundamentais para estabelecer ante mortem o diagnóstico. Em geral, a GC corresponde a uma neoplasia com diferenciação astrocítica e de grau histológico III / alto grau, a qual apresenta um curso clínico variável. No presente relato, os autores apresentam um caso de GC determinando hipertensão intracraniana, descrevem os principais achados histopatológicos e o diagnóstico diferencial desta neoplasia pouco frequente (AU)


Gliomatosis cerebri (GC) is a rare growth pattern of brain gliomas, which diffusely infiltrates the cerebral hemispheres and adjacent structures. Radiological and histopathological characteristics are key to establish ante-mortem diagnosis. In general, GC corresponds to a neoplasm with astrocytic differentiation and histological grade III/high degree, which presents a variable clinical course. In this report, the authors present a case of GC determining intracranial hypertension and describe the main histopathological findings and the differential diagnosis of this uncommon neoplasm (AU)
