    AbstractThe authors report a retrospective study (April 92-April 95) of 60 CT guided stereotactic biopsies. The procedure offered accurate histological diagnosis in 56 cases. There were 38 glial tumors, the majority being of high grade (III-IV). Five abscesses were evacuated and medically treated. Complications occurred in 5% of cases. These results are compatible with those reported in the literature. The simplicity and accuracy of stereotactic procedure are confirmed, making it an imperative step in the management of intraxial space occupying lesion when surgical resection is negotiable. The other applications of the stereotactic procedure are exposed.
