| Abstract | A 16-year-old girl presented with a unilateral third nerve palsy and predominant gray matter involvement on MR and positron emission tomography with fludeoxyglucose F 18. These findings were manifestations of gliomatosis cerebri. The antemortem diagnosis was made by partial temporal lobectomy. |
