Monoamine acid metabolites in ventricular CSF of patients with brain tumours. 1976

S R Bareggi, and M Porta, and M Collice, and G Calderini, and M Ferrara, and P L Morselli

Homovanillic acid (HVA) and 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA) in ventricular CSF were determined in 19 patients (12 female 7 male) with brain tumours. No relationship was found between ventricular fluid pressure (VFP) and levels of HVA and 5-HIAA. A relationship was observed between ventricular CSF, HVA concentrations and tumour induced alterations in CSF dynamics. HVA concentrations were very high in patients whose tumours involved the third ventricle, the aqueduct, or the fourth ventricle, producing marked alterations in CSF flow. HVA concentrations significantly lower than in controls were observed in cases where tumours involved the lateral ventricles. Concentrations of acid metabolites in patients with little or no alteration in CSF dynamics corresponded with those in patients with other neurosurgical disorders.

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.

D002551 Cerebral Ventricle Neoplasms Neoplasms located in the brain ventricles, including the two lateral, the third, and the fourth ventricle. Ventricular tumors may be primary (e.g., CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS and GLIOMA, SUBEPENDYMAL), metastasize from distant organs, or occur as extensions of locally invasive tumors from adjacent brain structures.
