Authors report a case of giant mucocele at frontal sinus. It was so large that almost whole portion of ipsilateral frontal lobe was compressed. Nevertheless presenting symptom was exceptionally trivial. With brief review of literatures, we discuss the etiology, pathogenesis, and so on.

We have experienced a case of oligodendroglioma which was similar to a falx meningioma. The oligodendroglioma arose in the medial surface(paracentral lobule) of the right frontal lobe and firmly attached to the falx cerebri. The tumor was found in early life(16 year old) and it had no roentgenographic calcification. So histological confirmation was possible after the operation. We report this uncommon oligodendroglioma with a review of literatures.

Two cases of tension pneumocephalus follwing surgery are reported. Tension pneumocephalus appears to be another potential complication of the operation and should be considered whenever a patient fail to recover as expected following surgery. Peaking of frontal lobe, mountain appearance of frontal lobe, and air densities at the cisterns are characteristic findings of tension pneumocephalus. Its diagnosis and treatment are easy and simple.

The values for regional cerebral blood flow at rest were obtained from 60 right handed normal Korean adults(48 males, 12 females) with an age range of 24 to 69 years. The results were summarized as follows. 1) Mean rCBF were Fg ; 74.8+/-13.3ml/100g/min., Fw ; 19.2+/-3.1ml/100g/min, Wg ; 44.0+/-5.4% and CBF(inf) ; 39.8+/-7.6ml/100g/min. 2) In normal regional flow distributions throughout each hemisphere, values of Fg, Fw and CBF(inf) were higher in the frontal lobes and lower in the parietal lobes. A trend for higher values for Wg was seen in occipital and temporal lobes and lower values in the frontal lobes of both hemispheres. 3) When normal limits of the interregional variety values were predicted as mean ICV+2 SD(p<0.05), those values were Fg ; 12%, Fw ; 12%, CBF(inf) ; 10%, FFg ; 4% and Wg ; 10% of mean hemispheric rCBF. 4) There was a significant progressive decline of parameters of Fg, CBF(inf) and Wg with advancing age.

Malignant Meningioma is rare and its initial clinical course tends to be short but otherwise indistinguishable from that of benign meningioma. And although it has been noted that many of them have propensities for invading the dural venous sinuses, the skull, and even extracranial tissues by direct spread, there seems little tendency for these to metastases. The changes of recurrence and eventual death are high in malignant meningioma. Recently we have experienced a case of malignant meningioma involving the right frontal bone and frontal lobe with infiltration to the adjacent structures.

10.A Long-Term Survival Case of a Primary Malignant Intracerebral Nerve Sheath Tumor.

We report a long-term survival case of a primary malignant intracerebral nerve sheath tumor (MINST) occurring in the right frontal lobe of a 13-year old boy. After the gross total resection (GTR), we have performed radiation therapy but it recurred 50 months after the surgery, so the second GTR was performed. Later, second tumor recurrence was found 4 months after the second surgery. Subsequently the third GTR, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy were carried out. At present, the patient has been remaining alive for 77 months without evidence of tumor recurrence. According to the previous reports, the primary MINST is very rare : there are only 8 cases reported. It is also a fast-growing, invasive tumor with poor outcome. This is the first case that had no recurrence for 50 months after the surgery among the reported cases that had been followed up for more than 5 years. It is supposed that a period of recurrence free survival after GTR and low mitotic activity are associated with the patient's prognosis. A GTR followed by adjuvant radiation therapy and chemotherapy will be recommended to patients of MINST.
