JOHN DE GROOT, M.D.

Ever heard of gliomas? These primary brain tumors arise within the brain, but we don't know the cell of origin.

There are multiple grades of gliomas -- grade II, III and IV, with grade IV being the most malignant.

Grade IV tumors are called glioblastoma. They are the most aggressive and are very infiltrative - they spread into other parts of the brain quickly. Glioblastomas don't metastasize outside of the brain.
Glioblastomas can occur in any lobe of the brain and even the brain stem and cerebellum, but more commonly occur in the frontal and temporal lobes.
