F: 1) ring-enhancing soft-tissue mass with 2) surrounding large hypodense area and 3) central necrotic area (low density area) in the right hemisphere with 4) compression of the right ventricle and 5) The tumour tumor grows in between the corpus callosum to the other side. 6) Deepening of the sulci and narrowing of the gyri

INFO/WWW-LINKS: General information: 1) More than 30% of intracranial neoplastic diseases are caused by metastases/secondaries (breast, lung, melanoma). Primaries include: astocytomas, glioblastoma multiforme, oligodendrogliomas, ependymomas, meningiomas. 2) Rising intracranial pressure can be caused by e. g. head injury, meningoencephalitis, haemorrhage or cerebral oedema and tumour

D: (CCT after contrast) Glioblastoma multiforme. At brain windows there is a 1) ring-enhancing soft-tissue mass with 2) surrounding oedema and 3) central necrotic area with its origin from the right-sided corpus callosum. 4) Compression of the right ventricle. The tumor grows in between the corpus callosum to the other side.
5) Medial compression of the left ventricle. 6) Cerebral atrophy
