Zusammenfassung:	A 64 years old woman presented with weakness, vertigo, paresthesia, dementia, which progressed to coma in a three-month-long period. The autopsy revealed pulmonary thrombosis and infarction, gastric erosions, peptic ulcer in the duodenum, leiomyoma in the esophagus, fibrosis of the pancreas and mild atherosclerosis. On macroscopic examination, the 1440 g brain did not show any bleeding, infarction or tumor. The histologic examination revealed gliomatosis cerebri of the white matter of the cerebral hemispheres.
