Glioblastoma and prolactinoma: a rare simultaneous occurrence

Abstract
The simultaneous development of two or more primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors of different cell types represents 0.9% of all diagnosed CNS tumors. To the best of our knowledge, the simultaneous occurrence of glioblastoma and pituitary adenomas has been reported four times in the English literature, with only two cases harboring prolactinoma and glioblastoma. We report a case of a 42-year-old male who was diagnosed with a sporadic co-occurrence of glioblastoma and a prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma (prolactinoma). This case report discusses the clinical presentation, radiological/histopathological features, and outcome as well as reviewing the pertinent medical literature. Glioblastoma and a prolactin-secreting adenoma may be detected within the same patient. Further studies are required to delineate the tumorigenesis of the development and co-occurrence of multiple intracranial tumors.
