    Author: Lahl R.
    Journal: Zentralbl Neurochir; 1976; 37(1):51-8. PubMed ID: 1015054.
    Abstract:
    The author in his present paper reports extensive paraventricular cavitation of the lateral ventricles in a 24-year-old woman with a brain-stem glioblastoma. Playing an important etiopathogenetic role in the development of this particular complicatien are a disturbance of the pischarge of liquor due to the expansion in the posterior cranial fossa of the rapidly growing tumor, the internal hydrocephalus resulting therefrom, and the acute tumoral hemorrhage accompanied by an invasion of the fourth ventricle and partial internal hematocephalus.
