Abstract
The authors report a unique case of glioblastoma which caused permanent amnesia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed the lesion to be limited to the hippocampal formation bilaterally. Although glioblastoma extends frequently into fiber pathways and expands into the opposite cerebral hemisphere, making a "butterfly" lesion, it is unusual for it to invade the limbic system selectively to this extent.Entities:
