title: [Multiple primary tumors of the brain (rare case)].
abstract: The author describes clinical and morphological findings about a combination of 2 brain tumors--preventicular astrocytoma of the right hemisphere and giant cell tumor of the pons (giant cell sarcoma?, giant cell glioblastoma?) which gave a metastasis into the area of the interventricular foramen. The author notes the rarity of such a combination and the difficulty of clinical interpretation of the case which became clear only after autopsy. The difficulties of the histological verification of pons tumor and its possible histogenesis are discussed.
