Gliomas of the Corpus callosum

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für die gesamte Neurologie und Psychiatrie

Conclusions

From this study of a series of twelve tumours of the corpus callosum, it will be seen that a correct antemortem diagnosis has been made only once and then by means of ventriculography. Nevertheless the symptomatology of the several cases is in many ways sufficiently suggestive to indicate advisability of ventricular studies, and when such a localizing diagnosis has been made it determines at the same time the almost certain gliomatous nature of the lesion.
