Dorsally exophytic cervicomedullary glioblastoma.

Spinal glioblastoma multiforme is a rare entity comprising 1.5% of all spinal cord tumors. We report a 57-year-old man presenting with a 1.5 month history of left sided radiculopathy, lower cranial nerve weakness and difficulty in walking. MRI of the brain and spine showed an exophytic intramedullary lesion extending from the cervicomedullary junction to the lower margin of C4. To our knowledge, we report the first patient with dorsally exophytic cervicomedullary and cervical intramedullary glioblastoma multiforme.
