Abstract

Abstract: A 58‐year‐old right‐handed man presented to our tertiary care center with gliosarcoma (GS) infiltration through the dura, skull, and soft tissue. Patient had a previous history of right temporal GS, with four intracranial surgeries prior to presentation. A multidisciplinary approach was used to treat the lesion and perform reconstruction. Abstract : It is important to consider a multidisciplinary approach when treating highly invasive tumors such as GS and to be mindful of mechanisms of spread while planning resection in index surgeries.
