Lymph node metastases from glioblastoma multiforme

CJ Wallace, PA Forsyth and DR Edwards
Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Foothills Hospital, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Extraneural metastases from glioblastoma multiforme are rare. Spread to the extracranial head and neck may be evident on routine follow-up images of the original lesion. We present two cases, one with documented metastatic adenopathy in the head and neck from glioblastoma and the other with probable metastatic disease in a lymph node in which biopsy was not performed, and discuss probable mechanisms of extraneural extension of this tumor.
