- 1/2-2/3 primer tümörler
- Diğerleri metastatik
- Pediatrik tümörlerin %20’si
- Daha çok posterior fossada
- Erişkinlerde tümörler daha çok supratentorial
SSS Tümörlerinin Özellikleri
- Karsinomlar gibi önceden tespit edilebilen in situ ya da premalign
evreleri yok
- Düşük dereceli lezyonlar beynin geniş alanlarını infiltre edebilir
- Ciddi klinik defisit, rezekte edilemez ve kötü prognoz
- Histolojik sınıflamadan bağımsız olarak anatomik lokalizasyon klinik
gidişi etkiler
- Lokal kitle etkisi
- Benign meningiom medullada kardiyorespiratuar arreste neden
olur
- Rezektabilite
- Beyin kökü gliomları rezeke edilemez
- En malign gliomlar bile nadiren SSS dışına çıkar
- Lokal infiltrasyon
- Subaraknoid alana yayılım

Mostly carcinomas
1/4-1/2 of intracranial tumors
Most common primary sites
Lung, breast, skin (melanoma), kidney, and gastrointestinal tract
Form sharply demarcated masses
Often at the gray-white junction, and elicit edema
The boundary between tumor and brain parenchyma is sharp at the
microscopic level as well, with surrounding reactive gliosis
Direct and localized effects
#
Metastatic spread of brain tumors to other regions of the body is
rare
Brain is not protected against spread of distant tumors
Carcinomas are the dominant type of systemic tumors that metastasize
to the nervous system
Metastatic melanoma
Metastatic lesions are distinguished grossly from most primary central
nervous system tumors by their multicentricity and well-demarcated
margins
The dark color of the tumor nodules in this specimen is due to the
presence of melanin
