Secondary exophytic glioblastoma of the cerebellopontine angle: a case report and review of the literature

Cases in which abnormal signals are simultaneously present in the right cerebellopontine angle, cerebellar hemisphere, and brainstem are extremely rare. After craniotomy and exploration, it was found that some of the abnormal signals were GB and some were inflammation. After surgical treatment, the patient's symptoms were relieved. This case provides treatment ideas for patients suspected of having intracranial inflammatory lesions but who have not shown improvement despite continuous medical treatment, thereby broadening the treatment perspective.

Abstract

Cases in which abnormal signals are simultaneously present in the right cerebellopontine angle, cerebellar hemisphere, and brainstem are extremely rare. After craniotomy and exploration, it was found that some of the abnormal signals were GB and some were inflammation. After surgical treatment, the patient's symptoms were relieved. This case provides treatment ideas for patients suspected of having intracranial inflammatory lesions but who have not shown improvement despite continuous medical treatment, thereby broadening the treatment perspective.
