title: Supratentorial glioblastoma multiforme metastasizing to the cervical spinal cord.
abstract: Cases of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) metastasizing to the leptomeninges or the intramedullary spine are rare and their prognosis are relatively poor. We present a case of supratentorial glioblastoma WHO grade IV which was later diagnosed to have cervical intramedullary metastasis 7 months after the primary surgery.
