Riassunto

Overviews selected major scientific and clinical areas in which advances can be and are being made, including those that show dramatic improvements in the clinical outlook, such as treating malignant pediatric tumors; and those that have shown more progress at the basic research level and are opening new dimensions of fundamental research. Six papers consider basic science from such perspectives as glial lineage, the fibrinolytic system in human brain tumors, and protein kinase C inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy. Two cover imaging and molecular neuropathology for diagnosis. The remaining 17 focus on therapy, and discuss such aspects as cortical mapping in tumor resection, intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during the removal of brain tumors, chemotherapy, the immunobiology of malignant gliomas, targeted toxin therapy, and herpes simplex gene therapy vectors to treat cancer.
