Human brain turnors removed from 126 patients were histochemically examined and following results were obtained. 1. In general, alkaline phosphatase activity is decreased in poorly differentiated gliomas, but is not related to the tumor cell infiltration. 2. All the cases of alkaline phosphatase negative gliomas have poor reconvalescent course and most of the positive cases show good reconvales...
Grossly term meningiomas describe group of tumours arising from meninges. It is a slow growing tumour. It can involve any age group and gender, however it is more common in elderly and in females. It is most common secondary malignancy attributed to radiation exposure. World Health Organization typically classifies it in three different grades. Grade I is benign, grade II atypical and grade III...
Background: Meningioma is one of the most common tumors of the central nervous system. It was shown that meningioma had up-regulated expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) that involved in cell growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Objectives: The aim of the study was the assessment of serum MMP-2 and -9 levels in patients with different grades of meningioma. Materials & Me...
Usually considered benign tumors, meningiomas can display aggressive behavior characterized by multiple recurrences and invasion of the brain, dura, and adjacent bone. The aggressive or malignant phenotype is difficult to characterize due to the broad spectrum of behaviors exhibited by meningiomas. Recent classification schemes based on features of anaplasia rather than histopathology have been...
INTRODUCTION One in every thousand intracranial meningiomas metastatize extracranially. Lung and intraabdominal organs are most frequently affected. Only 7% involve vertebrae and just a dozen cases have been reported in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first description of a total en bloc spondylectomy through a posterior approach for the treatment of an intraosseous metastatic men...
conclusions primary extracranial meningiomas (pems) without intracranial origin are very rare and because of their slow growing nature are initially managed by primary care physicians. case presentation we report a case of slowly progressing extracranial meningioma that was presented in a young adult woman. the tumor was asymptomatic but large enough to cause cosmetic discomfort. patient underw...
meningioma is usually a benign central nervous system (cns) tumor. metastasis is rare; however if it does occur the most metastatic sites are the liver and lungs. here, two cases of cns meningioma with metastasis to cervical lymph nodes are reported. the first case, a 48 year-old man developed cervical lymph node metastasis nine years after primary tumor diagnosis. the second case, a 23 year-ol...
Pseudoprogression has been recognized and widely accepted in the treatment of malignant gliomas, as transient increases in the volume of the enhanced area just after chemoradiotherapy, especially using temozolomide. We experienced a similar phenomenon in the treatment of malignant gliomas and meningiomas using boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), a cell-selective form of particle radiation. He...
BACKGROUND It was our purpose to analyze long-term clinical outcome and to identify prognostic factors after Linac-based fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (Linac-based FSRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in patients with intracranial meningiomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 10/1995 and 03/2009, 297 patients with a median age of 59 years were treated with FSRT for intracranial men...
BACKGROUND No proven effective medical therapy for surgery and radiation-refractory meningiomas exists. Sunitinib malate (SU011248) is a small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor, abundant in meningiomas. METHODS This was a prospective, multicenter, investigator-initiated single-arm pha...
