Cases of glioblastoma multiforme metastasizing to spinal cord.
Cases of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) metastasizing to the leptomeninx or the intramedullary spine are quite rare and prognoses are relatively poor. We present three cases of GBM with spinal metastasis, one of which also had leptomeningeal dissemination. Three patients with GBM were admitted to our clinic for postoperative radiotherapy after surgery. Leptomeningeal metastasis and dissemination...
متن کاملSymptomatic leptomeningeal and intramedullary metastases from intracranial glioblastoma multiforme: a case report.
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma multiforme infrequently metastasizes to the leptomeninges and even more rarely to the spinal cord. Moreover, very few patients with intracranial glioblastoma develop symptoms from spinal dissemination, with most patients not surviving long enough for spinal disease to become clinically evident.

متن کاملEffect of Foretinib on Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) Expression in Glioblastoma
Background: The most malignant form of infiltrating astrocytoma, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is one of the most aggressive human cancers. Foretinib diminished GBM cell invasion by downregulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2). The study aimed to examine the anti-tumor activity of foretinib and to test its effect on MMP2 expression in T98 cells. Materials and methods: T9...
متن کاملThe Regression of Glioblastoma Multiforme is Time Dependent in Wild-Type Rat Xenograft Model
Introduction: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive case of primary brain cancer which remains among the most fatal tumors worldwide. Although, some in vitro and in vivo models have been developed for a better understanding of GBM behavior; a natural model of GBM would improve the efficiency of experimental models to human GBM tumors. We aimed at the present study to examine the surviv...
