CEREBRAL PSEUDOTUMORS

CEREBRAL PSEUDOTUMORS Abstract Of the 1,209 cases of brain tumor, on file in our clinic, both verified and unverified, 30 have been classified as pseudotumors or arachnitis. In 8 of these the data are insufficient or the patient cannot be traced, and therefore of this number I have reviewed the records of only 22 cases; all but 4 were first observed before 1929, so that at least two years have elapsed, a period which has been proposed as a criterion by which to exclude tumors proper. Of these 22 cases, 11 presented posterior fossa symptoms and 11 pretentorial symptoms. Of the pretentorial group, 4 suggested a pituitary lesion and 1 a suprasellar lesion. In the 22 cases we have information of 1 patient covering a period of twenty-five years, 1 nineteen years, 2 thirteen years, 1 twelve years, 1 eight years, 3 six years and the remainder four years or less.

Abstract

Abstract Of the 1,209 cases of brain tumor, on file in our clinic, both verified and unverified, 30 have been classified as pseudotumors or arachnitis. In 8 of these the data are insufficient or the patient cannot be traced, and therefore of this number I have reviewed the records of only 22 cases; all but 4 were first observed before 1929, so that at least two years have elapsed, a period which has been proposed as a criterion by which to exclude tumors proper. Of these 22 cases, 11 presented posterior fossa symptoms and 11 pretentorial symptoms. Of the pretentorial group, 4 suggested a pituitary lesion and 1 a suprasellar lesion. In the 22 cases we have information of 1 patient covering a period of twenty-five years, 1 nineteen years, 2 thirteen years, 1 twelve years, 1 eight years, 3 six years and the remainder four years or less.
