Extra-neural Metastatic Potential of Primary Central Nervous System Malignancies.

Extraneural metastases of primary central nervous system malignancies are rare and challenging pathologies, with unknown metastatic mechanism and no consensus regarding the best treatment regimen. Herein, we have reviewed the literature to help elucidate characteristics, prognostic factors, and treatment outcomes of patients with metastatic primary brain tumours.
