Brain stem tumors

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2005
Brain stem tumors are heterogeneous. They range from the diffuse pontine tumors, which are almost invariably fatal despite all known therapies, to lower-grade focal or exophytic tumors that often have a very good prognosis with surgery or observation only.

Haemangioblastomas of the brain stem

min - Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery, 1986
Six cases of capillary haemangioblastoma involving the brain stem are presented. Some clinical and pathological peculiarities of this series are outlined.

Revascularization of the Rostral Brain Stem

Neurosurgery, 1982
Abstract The clinical and angiographic diagnosis of rostral brain stem vascular insufficiency is reviewed. The various possibilities for surgical revascularization of this area include anastomosis of the superficial temporal or occipital artery to the main stem of the posterior cerebral or superior cerebellar artery or their branches.

The isodendritic core of the brain stem

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1966
AbstractAccording to their degree of morphological specialization, the cell populations of the brain stem may be classified into three groups: isodendritic, allodendritic and idiodendritic. The isodendritic neurons, or generalized neurons, are the most frequently encountered.

Brain stem

2014
Abstract Disease in the brain stem is divided into extrinsic and intrinsic disease. Extrinsic disease originates from tumors in the cerebellar pontine angle, jugular foramen, in the cerebellum, or the tentorium of the meninges. Intrinsic disease can be cause by many vascular syndromes associated with the brain stem, which produce ...

Brain stem tumors

Seminars in Roentgenology, 1990
The most common brain stem tumor in both the adult and pediatric population is the brain stem glioma. MR has significant advantages over CT in detecting the presence of the tumor as well as evaluating its extent. Diagnosis must be as precise as possible, since therapy is generally administered without biopsy material available for pathologic ...

Brain Stem Functional Localization with Atlas of the Brain Stem

2011
The brain stem is the subcortical region that contains all but two of the 12 cranial nerves. Associated with the cranial nerves are centers that control the heart, lung, and GI systems and also control the muscles in the head and neck. We speak and move our eyes and all the muscles in the head due to the cranial nerves.

[Brain Stem and Para-Brain Stem Lesions].

No shinkei geka. Neurological surgery
Surgeries for brainstem lesions and adjacent areas needs meticulous manipulation in the profoundly deep surgical field. Moreover, it is associated with a high risk of complications pertinent to resection. The opportunity for a surgeon to amass extensive surgical experience in these lesions is limited.

The Auditory Brain Stem Response in Patients with Brain Stem or Cochlear Pathology

Ear and Hearing, 1995
The purpose of this study was to determine the value, based on true-positive and false-positive rates, of various auditory brain stem response (ABR) indices in discriminating patients with brain stem lesions from patients with cochlear lesions.A factorial design was used in this retrospective study.
