description | Although the incidence of secondary malignancies due to stereotactic radiosurgery are known to be lower than that of conventional external beam radiation therapy, various instances of secondary malignancy have been reported. We present a rare case of secondary gliosarcoma following gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS) after treatment of glioblastoma. An 81-year-old man underwent navigation-guided biopsy for an incidentally found intra-axial brain tumor in the left temporal lobe. Pathological results demonstrated this was an IDH1 wild-type glioblastoma. Following pathological confirmation, the Stupp regimen was implemented and completed 8 months after the surgery. In a follow-up magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan performed 1 year after the surgery, a small residual nodule had increased in size. GKS was performed on this lesion. However, after GKS, the growth rate of the tumor rather accelerated. Based on MRI scans, the tumor significantly increased in size between GKS implementation and a follow-up scan performed at 9 months after GKS. An anterior temporal lobectomy was performed that included the removal of the tumor. Pathology reports confirmed the tumor was a gliosarcoma. |
