摘要
Objective and importance. The first case was recently reported of tumor seeding by glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) after stereotactic biopsy. This occurred despite radiosurgical treatment of the lesion post-biopsy. We report the first case of metastatic seeding along the needle biopsy tract of a GBM in which the tract was within the treatment field of subsequent fractionated radiation therapy.
