Abstract

Nervous system tumors are not the most common cancer in the population. However, the clinical manifestations of brain tumors (BTs) are very multifaceted and can mask a wide range of pathologies, which poses a difficult task for doctors to suspect a cancer and start treating the patient as soon as possible. An atypical clinical course of the BTs is described, which caused a rather long path to diagnosis in a middle-aged patient.
