title: Post-traumatic malignant glioma: case report and review of the literature.
abstract: Posttraumatic gliomas have been described, but in none of these has there been documented evidence of absence of tumour at the time of the injury. We report a case of post-traumatic malignant glioma with radiological evidence of only a contusion prior to the development of the tumour.
