Gliomatosis cerebri is a rare primary diffuse brain tumor that has a poor prognosis. It is defined by the World Health Organization as a diffusely infiltrating glial tumor impacting at least three cerebral lobes, mostly with bilateral involvement of the cerebral hemispheres and/or deep gray matter. These malignancies consist of infiltrative threads that spread quickly and deeply into the surrounding brain tissue, or into multiple parts of the brain simultaneously, making them very difficult to remove with surgery or treat with radiation. It is distinguished histopathologically by the infiltration of malignant astrocytic components into the surrounding neuropil. Gliomatosis cerebri behaves like a malignant tumor that is very similar to glioblastoma.
