Mr. A. H., age 44, had a generalized tonic-clonic seizure unexpectedly at work_ He had no history of seizures, trauma, infection, or other illness. Investigation revealed a tumor in the right parietal lobe. This was removed surgically, although the diffuse nature of the malignant mass prevented its complete elimination. Follow-up radiation treatment was recommended. After surgery, Mr. A. H. demonstrated considerable weakness and sensory loss on his left side. A few days after surgery, Mr. A. H. developed a bacterial infection at the operative site. The infection was eradicated quickly with treatment, but the tumor did not respond to radiation and chemotherapy. As a result, several tumors in the brain grew relatively large during the next 2 months.
