Abstract The unusual concurrence of a brain tumor and an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is discussed in this case report. A 12-year-old child presented with a severe headache, and an intracerebral mass was found on neuroradiological study. At operation, we encountered a superficial AVM, not shown on the computed tomogram or arteriogram. At a second procedure, a ganglioneuroma was removed. The literature on the concurrence of these two entities is reviewed; comments are made on the pathology of ganglion cell tumors.

AbstractGlioblastoma (GBM) is the most common intrinsic brain tumor in adults, accounting for 67% of primary brain tumors. Giant cell glioblastoma (GCG) is a rare variation of GBM, occurring in less than 5% of the cases. GCG has been demonstrated to affect younger patients and have a more indolent course than traditional GBM with longer survival rates. Age, surgical resection, and genetic features are likely related with better prognosis. The presence of a p53 mutation is found in 75% of GCG with this more indolent behavior. We present a case of a 72 years-old female who presented with an extremely aggressive GCG without p53 expression who had an unusually rapid neurological deterioration and tumor regrowth after surgical excision.
