Sumario:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent neoplasm of the central nervous system (CNS) with a low incidence in people. The heterogeneous characteristics of this malignant tumor make the overall survival one of the shortest. Metastatic lesions due to glioblastoma are mainly reported in liver, lungs and leptomeningeal spaces, existing in worldwide literature with very few reported cases. The osseous tissue continues to be an exceptional place to present metastases. This is the reason why we report one case of a young adult with extensive lytic compromise confirmed by histopathological features.
