  • Title: Cerebral gumma mimicking glioblastoma multiforme.
    Author: Ances BM, Danish SF, Kolson DL, Judy KD, Liebeskind DS.
    Journal: Neurocrit Care; 2005; 2(3):300-2. PubMed ID: 16159080.
    Abstract:
    This article reports an unusual case of a syphilitic gumma with a clinical and radiographical presentation initially suggestive of glioblastoma multiforme. Pathological evaluation was essential in establishing the diagnosis of neurosyphilis and in excluding neoplastic involvement. Cerebral gumma should be considered as part of the differential diagnosis of a midline intracranial lesion observed on magnetic resonance imaging.
