Safe and complete resection represents the first step in the treatment of glioblastomas and is mandatory in increasing the effectiveness of adjuvant therapy to prolong overall survival. With gross total resection currently limited in extent to MRI contrast enhancing areas, the extent to which supra-complete resection beyond obvious contrast enhancement could have impact on overall survival rema...

M.Radulescu proved the following result: Let X be a compact Hausdorff topological space and π : C(X)→ C(X) a supra-additive and supra-multiplicative operator. Then π is linear and multiplicative. We generalize this result to arbitrary topological spaces.

A case of cutaneo-cutaneous fistula superior to the external auditory canal extending from the mastoid skin to the skin over the zygoma is reported. The adult patient presented with recurrent discharge and swelling of the skin over the zygoma and mastoid bones. Definitive treatment was in the form of complete excision of the fistula tract.
