Meningioma is the commonest primary intracranial tumor in adults, with majority being benign. Malignant meningioma exceedingly rare and carries a poor prognosis because of its tendency for local recurrence distant metastasis. We present case 53 years old male anaplastic malignant meningioma, which recurred after excision radiotherapy later metastasised to pleura, bones brain. Keywords: Metastat...

Meningioma recurrence after complete removal remains one of the most relevant problems of meningioma treatment. DNA microarray technologies allow the screening of several thousands genes simultaneously. This gene expression profiling approach has been successfully applied in many researches associated with tumor classification. We analyzed genome wide expression profiles of 68 meningioma sample...

BACKGROUND The etiology of meningioma is largely unknown, although breast cancer has been suggested to play a role. METHODS A monoinstitutional, retrospective analysis was performed at European Institute of Oncology on 12,330 patients with breast cancer. The cumulative incidence of meningioma was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test was used to assess differences betw...

purpose: to report an unusual case of orbitocranial meningioma presenting in a neonate. methods: case report results: a 1-day-old neonate was presented with severe proptosis of the left eye. ct scan and mri showed an extensive mass with involvement of left orbit and brain. discrete calcification could be seen on ct scan. the patient did not have any signs of neurofibromatosis and family history...

background: prevention of slipping accidents requires provision of adequate friction through the use of suitable combinations of footwear and underfoot surfaces. shoe sole tread groove is one of the important factors on friction coefficient during walking. objective: to measure the effect of different shoe sole tread groove depths and different surfaces on the required quotient of friction (q),...

the sense of olfaction reached its zenith in development much earlier than other special senses. olfaction is much more acute than the other senses, exhibits both high sensitivity for odours and high discrimination between them. this plays a very important role even in the social and behavioral aspects of human beings. recent studies using molecular genetics, electrophysiology and behavioral an...
