Two distinct intracranial tumors of different cell types in a single patient. Case report and review of the literature
No full textWe report the case of a patient with two distinct brain tumors. A meningioma was resected surgically. Nine months later a glioblastoma appeared in the same region, but at a different site. This was not treated, because the patient died. The clinical significance and etiology of these tumors are considered. © 1994 Walter de Gruyter & Co
Single brain metastases from unknown primary malignancies in CT-era
No full textCerebral metastases account for about half of all intracranial neoplasms. In 33%-66% they represent the first sign of a systemic tumor. We report our experience in 100 patients with solitary brain metastasis from unknown primary malignancies treated between 1976 and 1988. All patients were treated surgically and 81 also received radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Postoperative mortality was 6%. Mean survival in those patients with unknown primary tumor at intracranial surgery was 15.3 months as compared to 31.6 months in those in whom it remained unidentified during life. The usual cause of death was growth of the systemic canc
