MENINGIOMAS WITHIN THE LATERAL VENTRICLE

Meningiomas of the Third Ventricle in Childhood

Citation: GENC A, Kasapoglu B. Meningiomas of the Third Ventricle in Childhood. Neurosurg. 2016, 1:2. Intraventricular meningiomas are rare and relatively more often seen in children. Most often, these arise from the lateral ventricular walls. On the other hand, meningiomas of the third ventricle are extremely unusual and difficult to diagnose [1]. Those meningiomas arising in the third ventric...

Morphological Changes within the Rat Lateral Ventricle after the Administration of Proteasome Inhibitors

The broad variety of substances that inhibit the action of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS)-known as proteasome inhibitors-have been used extensively in previous studies, and they are currently frequently proposed as a novel form of cancer treatment and as a protective factor in intracerebral hemorrhage treatment. The experimental data on the safest route of proteasome inhibitor administra...

Pedunculated gliomas in the lateral ventricle.

Anterior third ventricle meningiomas. Report of two cases.

Third ventricle meningiomas are rare, representing approximately 0.15% of all meningiomas. The majority of third ventricular meningiomas are located posteriorly in the pineal region. Less commonly, they arise in the anterior part of the third ventricle. We report the cases of two patients with large and giant meningiomas originating in the anterior part of the third ventricle.

Meningiomas of the lateral ventricles. A review of 10 cases.

BACKGROUND Intraventricular meningiomas are rare tumours that represent about 2% of all intracranial meningiomas, and represent one of the most challenging problems in neurosurgery. They are located deep within the brain and often are sizable and highly vascular. We report on a series of 10 meningiomas of the lateral ventricles treated at our institution during the last 28 years. PATIENTS Ten...
