We present a case of recurrent glioma, previously treated with maximal surgery
and radiation in which a high dose of tamoxifen has stabilized the tumour
clinically and has resulted in it's radiologic regression.
Given tamoxifen's
relative lack of toxicity, it might serve as a useful adjuvant in the treatment
of recurrent glioma.
