Image-guided stereotactic biopsy of infiltrative, multicentric and deep-seated supratentorial cerebral gliomas
Infiltrative cerebral gliomas remain a neurosurgical challenge despite the latest achievements in neuroimaging techniques and microsurgical approaches. In this paper the authors present their experience in 85 cases of stereotactic biopsies performed for infiltrative, multicentric and deep-seated cerebral gliomas. The stereotactic and neuroimagistic tools used for these procedures included the L...
متن کاملResection of deep-seated gliomas using neuroimaging for stereotactic placement of guidance catheters.
A simple computed tomography- (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-guided stereotactic method for guided microsurgical resection of either deep-seated gliomas or tumors adjacent to an eloquent area is described. The technique employs the Brown-Roberts-Wells stereotactic system and twist drills, 2.7 mm in diameter, for the stereotactic placement of 2.4 mm diameter scaled guidance catheters th...

with a power of 0.8 and type I error probability of 0.05. Anyway, in our opinion, metabolic guidance may be rather useful during stereotactic biopsy of parenchymal brain tumors, and may be especially recommended for recurrent, particularly previously irradiated, neoplasms, or for sampling of the highly vascular lesions since in the latter cases, detection of the spectroscopic abnormalities outs...
متن کاملTransthoracic image guided biopsy.
Transthoracic image guided biopsy is now firmly established in the armamentarium of diagnostic tests to establish the nature of a mass in the lung, pleura, mediastinum or chest wall. It may be performed under computed tomographic, ultrasonic or fluoroscopic control, and provided a fine needle technique is employed, morbidity is low. Worldwide reports show a 90% true positive yield and a false p...
متن کاملDeep seated Candidiasis
Candida pneumonia is classified as primary when there is no other hematogenous manifestation of candidiasis. The infection is rare and usually is the result of aspiration. Secondary candida pneumonia, the most frequent presentation, is associated with hematogenous candidiasis. Among cancer patients, only 9% of pulmonary candidiasis cases were considered primary. Cardiovascular infections caused...
