    The authors report of ozone administration into the subarachnoid space for the treatment of chronic scarring--adhesive processes in the pial membrane. Among the 104 studied patients, 62 had convexital leptomeningitis, 7--basal, 3--of the posterior cavity and 28 diffuse forms. In patients with leptomeningitis of the posterior cavity in the absence of an engorged papilla of the eyeground, ozone was introduced by occipital punctures, in convexital and basal leptomeningitis--by lumbar puncture.
