Popis: We report the case of previously healthy 14 years old male who presented high grade fever and headache. There was a history of convulsion at age of 7 years, so MRI Brain was done. It was suggestive of a central nervous system neoplasm. Our patient had only two days of fever which is an unusual presentation of a neoplasm. The paper should be of interest to the clinicians as neoplastic fever as cause of acute febrile illness is considered as a remote possibility.
