Abstract
: Gliomatosis cerebri is a rare malignant astrocytic tumor characterized by diffuse, neoplastic glial cell infiltration of the brain involving more than 2 cerebral lobes. We report a case of Gliomatosis cerebri in a 20 year old young male patient who was evaluated for complaints of headache and double vision. He was treated with Radiotherapy and 6 cycles of adjuvant temozolamide. Patient is alive and disease free at 1 year of follow up. This case is being presented on account of its rarity.
