Glioblastoma of the optic pathways: An Atypical case.

Rahat Brar1, Abhishek Prasad, Manpreet Brar.   

Abstract

We present a case of glioblastoma multiforme of the optic pathways in a 68 year old lady. Glioblastomas of the optic pathways are rare tumors; the predominant non enhancing component and the vast extent of involvement makes this a unique case. This case report further increases the database of knowledge available on the MRI characteristics of malignant optic glioma of adulthood.
