Glioblastomas are highly malignant and invasive brain tumors. Cerebral cavernous malformations(CCMs) are vascular diseases of congenital and occult vascular dysplasia, which may arise sporadically or may be inherited due to autosomal dominant condition. To the best of our knowledge, cases of glioblastoma in the cerebral hemisphere mimicking cavernous malformation have not been reported in the literature. We reported a case of glioblastoma mimicking CCM. The patient was admitted at our hospital in July 2015 due to a 9-day history of intermittent dizziness. The present study reports a case of a glioblastoma on the right temporal lobe mimicking CCM, which was confirmed by postoperative pathology. The diagnosis of glioblastoma was not determined even during surgery, and the lesion was totally resected with no complications. During the surgical procedure, the lesion was very similar to a CCM. In conclusion, it is difficult to distinguish between glioblastoma and CCM. Therefore, when a lesion is present with hemorrhage and the imaging features are very similar to a vascular disease, a tumor must be considered in the differential diagnosis.
