  • Title: Elevated CSF gamma globulins with cerebral "glioma.".
    Author: Neuwelt EA, Garcia JH, Kolar O, Rao K, Ducker T.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1977 Aug; 8(2):107-10. PubMed ID: 70079.
    Abstract:
    A patient with a six-year history of seizures and a shorter history of a progressive hemiparesis, had a glioma. A partial frontal lobectomy was performed. The cerebrospinal fluid, 38 days post-operatively, prior to irradiation, had an increase in gamma globulins. Following cranial irradiation the CSF gamma globulin level returned to normal and the hemiparesis disappeared. The significance of these CSF changes is discussed.
