To evaluate the premises for the diagnosis gliomatosis cerebri in relation to diffuse astrocytomas.
CT, MR images and pathological analyses were used to assess the cases of 4 patients with diffusely infiltrating astrocytic tumours that radiologically, clinically and pathologically resembled gliomatosis cerebri.
Some astrocytomas have an immense potential for diffuse infiltration and they would seem to be more frequent than recognized hitherto. The definition of gliomatosis cerebri as a separate entity is questionable, and a diagnosis of diffusely infiltrating astrocytoma is recommended in such cases.
评估与弥漫性星形细胞瘤相关的大脑胶质瘤病的诊断前提。
采用CT、MR图像及病理分析对4例放射学、临床及病理表现类似大脑胶质瘤病的弥漫性浸润性星形细胞瘤患者进行评估。
一些星形细胞瘤具有巨大的弥漫浸润潜力,且似乎比迄今所认识到的更为常见。将大脑胶质瘤病定义为一个独立实体存在疑问,在此类病例中建议诊断为弥漫性浸润性星形细胞瘤。
