Abstrakt: | A patient is described who successfully underwent cerebral hemispherectomy for malignant glioma and whose death nine months later, wrongly ascribed to recurrent malignancy, was in fact due to a subsequently-developing benign meningioma in the remaining hemisphere. The possible advantages of a modification of standard hemispherectomy technique are also discussed. |
