RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Brain tumors have always fascinated and intrigued histopathologists due to their diverse morphology and rarity. Recent surge in the molecular developments has further posed a challenge in diagnosis especially in a resource limited setting. Therefore, comprehensive tumor registries have become quintessential to compare our existing database with new found knowledge. METHODS: A descriptive retrospective study was carried out on archival data of 5 years in a neuroscience institute. All neurosurgical cases operated with complete clinical history and definitive histopathological diagnosis were included. The cases were analyzed with reference to age, sex, location of the lesion, grade of the tumor, and immunohistochemical profile as available and compared with existing registries and literature. RESULTS: The primary brain tumors accounted for 38.29% of all pathologies. Majority of cases clustered around 40-70 years of age (65%). Pediatric (0-19 years) cases comprised 7%. Most common primary brain tumor found in the adult population was meningioma (28%) followed by Glioblastoma (25%). The most common neoplasm in pediatric age group were gliomas (46.29%) followed by embryonal neoplasms. Pituitary adenomas (PAs) constituted 16% of all intracranial neoplasm. Gonadotroph adenoma was the most common of the nonfunctional adenomas constituting one half of the PAs (51.72%). Somatotroph adenoma was most common in the functional group constituting 20% of all PAs. CONCLUSIONS: The layout of cases when compared with available brain tumor registries showed nearly similar trends in distribution. Our study succored data from the population in eastern part of India of which our institute is a major referral centre for neurosurgical cases.

RESUMO

Bruns syndrome is characterized by attacks of sudden severe headache, vomiting, and vertigo precipitated due to abrupt movements of the head due to presence of mobile deformable intraventricular lesion causing episodic obstructive hydrocephalus. Proposed underlying mechanism is intermittent or positional CSF obstruction resulting from ball-valve mechanism. Most common etiologies are NCC and intraventricular tumors. Here we present an unusual case of Bruns syndrome that was initially MRI negative.
