Pediatric Meduloblastoma and the Prognostic Value of MIB-1 Proliferative Factor

Background: Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. The important factors in predicting survival are the extent of disease, proliferation index of the tumor cells, histopathologic class and the age at diagnosis. The percentage of Ki-67 positive cells reflects the proliferation  of the cells and is one of the critical factors which determine the growth of the tumor....

گزارش موردی نادر از پاپیلری گلیونورونال تومور مغز

Introduction: Papillary Glioneuronal Tumor (PGNT) is a rare tumor with approximately 70 cases reported in the last decade. This tumor is more common in young adults and is the most common clinical manifestation of headaches and seizures. This tumor has an indolent clinical behavior. Regarding gender prevalence there is no detailed epidemiological information available, because of the rarity and...

Establishment of a human medulloblastoma cell line and its heterotransplantation into nude mice.

A permanent cell line arising from a cerebellar medulloblastoma was established and its growth characteristics were investigated. Although the original tumor inoculum failed to take, the cultured cells were readily tumorigenic in nude mice and gave rise to rapidly growing tumors which could be easily subpassaged. The primary tumor showed evidence of both glial and neuronal differentiation, and ...
