[Cytophotometric investigations of the nuclear DNA content in ependymomas and plexuspapillomas (author's transl)]. 1977

W Müller, and R Brämisch, and D Afra, and A Schwenzfeger

Report on Feulgen-cytophotometric DNA investigations in 10 ependymomas and 2 plexuspapillomas. All ependymomas represent in their karyograms aneuploidic stem lines. In most of them one observes duplication peaks (G2 cells) as expression of proliferation behaviour. The histological benign ependymomas exhibit stem lines between the hyperdiploid and hypotetraploid values. With increasing malignancy the stem lines are elevated in higher ploidy levels and a reduction of a predominant stem line is recognizable. One of the ependymomas represents a distribution of DNA values like in a "mosaic" tumour. The measurements in the plexuspapillomas in good conformity with the histologic picture reflect the DNA distribution of a benign euploid neoplasm.

D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.

D004806 Ependymoma Glioma derived from EPENDYMOGLIAL CELLS that tend to present as malignant intracranial tumors in children and as benign intraspinal neoplasms in adults. It may arise from any level of the ventricular system or central canal of the spinal cord. Intracranial ependymomas most frequently originate in the FOURTH VENTRICLE and histologically are densely cellular tumors which may contain ependymal tubules and perivascular pseudorosettes. Spinal ependymomas are usually benign papillary or myxopapillary tumors.
