title: Glioblastoma arising in a patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome.
abstract: Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome is a rare developmental disorder marked by the congenital absence of the uterus and vagina. The syndrome has been associated with tumors of the female reproductive system, but rarely in other organ systems and to our knowledge, never in the brain. We report a glioblastoma in a 34-year-old patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome.
