The influence of volumetric tumor doubling time, DNA ploidy, and histologic grade on the survival of patients with intracranial astrocytomas.
To improve the prediction of individual survival in patients with intracranial astrocytomas through the analysis of volumetric tumor doubling time (VDt) and DNA ploidy. ⋯ VDt and DNA ploidy were more sensitive than histologic grading as indicators of individual survival. Initial tumor size needs to be considered when staging and assessing survival in patients with intracranial astrocytomas.

Case ReportsEndovascular treatment of epistaxis in a patient with tuberculosis and a giant petrous carotid pseudoaneurysm.
A 31-year-old man with pulmonary tuberculosis who did not have human immunodeficiency virus had massive epistaxis from a giant petrous internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm. Endovascular trapping of the aneurysm was performed, curing the epistaxis. MR showed multiple enhancing brain lesions that resolved with additional antituberculous drug therapy.
