Cisternal changes produced by experimental balloon tumours in the posterior cranial fossa. A post-mortem investigation.
Post-mortem cisternography before and after stereotactic introduction of balloon tumours to predetermined positions in the posterior fossa was carried out. Radiography in situ as well as radiography and inspection of plastic casts of the cisterns were used for the systematic analysis of the appearances of the cisterns.
