The relevance of pathological diagnosis for therapy and outcome of brain stem gliomas
Acta Neurochirurgica. Supplementum
|January 1, 1988
Abstract:
41 patients with brain stem gliomas are presented and analyzed. Optimal therapy as well as outcome depend on the histological identity of the tumours. Histological examination cannot be replaced by CT, angiography and NMR. Therefore stereotactic biopsies are recommended in all cases with brain stem gliomas.
