Glioblastoma mimicking subarachnoid hemorrhage of unknown etiology: A case report

Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignant tumor of the brain. Common radiological findings using initial computed tomography (CT) reveal an intra-axial lesion with perifocal edema. Here we present a rare case of diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) detected on an initial CT image in a patient without intracranial aneurysm in whom the final diagnosis was glioblastoma.
