Male, 63 years old, with brain tumor, GBM, planning for tumor resection. Left cranial postoperative findings are again seen. A resection cavity within the left superior temporal lobe is unchanged. A nodule of enhancement along the anterior margin of the resection cavity is redemonstrated showing perhaps a slight interval increase in size from the prior examination, now measuring 17 x 15 mm, previously 15 x 12 mm. Contiguous enhancement which extends into the anterior left temporal lobe is unchanged. Somewhat contiguous enhancement which extends posteriorly along the left ventricular atrial margin is slightly more conspicuous as well.Additional enhancing lesions are seen. Ex vacuo dilatation of the left lateral ventricle is unchanged. Incidental hypoplasia of the right cerebral hemisphere is also redemonstrated.
Enhancing nodule along the anterior margin of the left temporal resection cavity, and infiltrative enhancement along the left ventricular atrium, are redemonstrated and appear to be somewhat more conspicuous than on the prior exam. Enhancement within the anterior left temporal lobe is unchanged. Additional postoperative findings are unchanged.
