Retrospective analysis of case records of 9793 patients with brain tumors operated on at the Burdenko Neurosurgical Institute from 1985 to 1992 was done. 323 patients (3.2%) had postoperative CNS infectious complications with deaths registered in 46 cases. Cholesteatomas and choriopapillomas had the highest complication rates: 12% of all cases and 11.4%, respectively. Variable incidence was observed in the glial tumors group: from 3% in glioblastoma patients to 4.7% in oligodendroglioma patients. Concurrent infections, surgical approaches via parabasal sinuses and CSF leakage at the operation site were considered as risk factors for postoperative CNS infectious complications.

D009031 Moscow The capital of Russia.
D011183 Postoperative Complications Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery.

D001922 Brain Abscess A circumscribed collection of purulent exudate in the brain, due to bacterial and other infections. The majority are caused by spread of infected material from a focus of suppuration elsewhere in the body, notably the PARANASAL SINUSES, middle ear (see EAR, MIDDLE); HEART (see also ENDOCARDITIS, BACTERIAL), and LUNG. Penetrating CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA and NEUROSURGICAL PROCEDURES may also be associated with this condition. Clinical manifestations include HEADACHE; SEIZURES; focal neurologic deficits; and alterations of consciousness.

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.
