Multiple bone metastases in a patient with glioblastoma multiforme.
Extracranial bone metastases from glioblastoma multiforme are rarely reported in the medical literature. The authors describe a case of glioblastoma multiforme with distant osseous metastases that were detected by a Tc-99m MDP image. The metastases were osteolytic and expansile on plain radiographs.
