Inhibiting action human glioblastoma extract on haemolytic complement of human and xenogeneic sera.

The action of some extracts of human glioblastoma of the haemolytic complement of human and xenogeneic sera has been examined. The study suggests that the antigenic products of some human glioblastomas may induce an inhibiting effect on the haemolytic complement of human, as well as xenogeneic (rat and rabbit), sera. The inhibiting action on the xenogeneic sera is indicative of the presence of species-specific antigens or tumor cells, comparable to that of normal tissues.

Malignant cerebellar astrocytoma. Report of five cases.

Five cases of malignant cerebellar astrocytoma observed during a seven-year period are reported. The analysis of the cases allows us to conclude that malignant cerebellar astrocytoma represents a true tumoral entity quite distinct from cerebellar glioblastoma as well as from medulloblastoma. A perfect correspondence between the histological malignancy and the duration of survival has been noted in all the cases.

Forth ventricle hematoma in a eight-year-old child.

We report the case of a 4th ventricle hematoma due to rupture of an angioma localized in the cerebellar vermis, in an eight-year-old child. Only seven cases of a vascular malformation in such a localization, angiographically and/or pathologically verified, have been previously reported. The girl died, in spite of prompt surgical treatment. Also the clinical presentation of this kind of case is very rare.

Antigenic properties of fresh and lyophylised human dura mater.

The action of human fresh and lyophylised human dura mater on rat, rabbit and human serum complement has been analyzed with the aim of confirming and comparing the species-specific antigenicity of both substances. The results demonstrate that both fresh and lyophylised human dura mater induce a complement consumption on rat and rabbit serum. The phenomenon is related to the species-specific antigenic activity of the tissue, and it is only partially decreased by the lyophylisation procedure. The residual antigenic activity, however, doesn't limit the use of this material as a graft for dural defects repairs in humans.
