title: [The role of inflammatory infiltrate as a prognostic criterion in cerebral metastases. Preliminary results].
abstract: Data concerning a preliminary study on the prognostic significance of inflammatory infiltration in cerebral metastases are reported. Seventeen cases of operated cerebral metastases have been studied to investigate their histotype and grade of necrosis, stromal reaction, and inflammatory infiltration. Finally, the results obtained are discussed in relation to the postoperative survival rate of the patients.
