Primary central nervous system lymphoma: a curable brain tumor.
O NCE A rare tumor and the subject of individual case reports, primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) now afflicts approximately 1,000 people in the United States each year. Although less common than gliomas, PCNSL has captured the attention of neuro-oncologists for several reasons. First, it arises from a cell type not normally present in CNS. Second, it can completely regress with either corticosteroid...
متن کاملTumor-to-tumor metastasis to the central nervous system.

We report herein two such cases of metastasis from pulmonary adenocarcinoma and malignant melanoma (MM) of vulva, respectively. Case 1: a 69-year-old female smoker who had a history of right upper lobectomy of lung for ad...

Objective(s): This study aimed to explore the contribution of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in the recruitment of B-cell and secretion of immunoglobulins (Igs) during cerebral tuberculosis (TB).Materials and Methods: In this work, the contributing role of TNF in regulating Ig secretions was investigated by comparing wild type TNF (TNFf/f),...
متن کاملNeuro-oncology and palliative care: a challenging interface.
P atients with high-grade gliomas almost invariably develop disease progression despite recent advances in anticancer therapy. Increasingly, the value of formal palliative care consultation and management has been recognized in both cancer and noncancer medicine. However, there is a paucity of data to definitively guide the provision of palliative care for neuro-oncology patients. This paper ai...
