| Description |
Gliosarcoma is a very rare mixed tumor in the central nervous system, consisting of glial and malignant mesenchymal elements. Gliosarcoma is considered a subtype of glioblastoma and termed as primary gliosarcoma. Secondary gliosarcoma is detected at subsequent surgery for previously resected and irradiated glioblastoma multiforme. We describe an unusual case with vision loss due to gliosarcoma, probably radiotheraphy-induced,15 years after radiation treatment for hypophyseal adenoma. |
