A review of the pathology of 689 neuroectodermal tumors occurring over a 30-year period at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto has underlined the importance of examining the tissue from each tumor in order to insure consistency and accuracy in histological diagnosis. The age, sex, histology and topographical distribution of this series of tumors is compared with other series and discussed in detail. The high proportion of tumors occurring in early childhood, the striking male preponderance, and the high incidence of astrocytomas, medulloblastomas and ependymomas is emphasized.
对多伦多病童医院30年间出现的689例神经外胚层肿瘤的病理学回顾强调了检查每个肿瘤组织以确保组织学诊断的一致性和准确性的重要性。将该系列肿瘤的年龄、性别、组织学和地形分布与其他系列进行了比较并详细讨论。强调了这些肿瘤在幼儿期高发、男性明显占优势以及星形细胞瘤、髓母细胞瘤和室管膜瘤的高发病率。
