AB  - Extracranial metastasis (ECM) of glioma is a rare condition that occurs in the internal nervous axis. A 23-year-old woman presented with anaplastic oligoastrocytoma (WHO III) in a left temporal tumor. The patient received chemoradiotherapy after surgery in our center. Three years after treatment, the patient experienced multiple ECMs in the right lung, left iliac bone, and multiple swollen subcutaneous nodules including the right clavicle, back of the neck, left forearm, right upper arm, and right clavicle. The patient died of cerebral herniation at the age of 27 due to recurrent intracranial glioma. Treatment of ECM of glioma remains very challenging, and further investigations are needed.
