Sumario:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a malignant adult brain tumor that is visualized as an enhancing lesion on post-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, we present a rare case of non-enhancing GBM that required histopathological examination for a definitive diagnosis. Our findings emphasize the critical role of biopsy in the diagnosis and treatment of GBMs, particularly in cases of non-enhancing lesions on MRI.
