[Homovanillic acid (HVA) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) levels in the cerebrospinal fluid from the lateral ventricle of patients with brain tumors].
In patients with supratentorial tumours and posterior fossa tumours or in the third ventricle the concentrations of HVA and 5-HIAA were determined in the cerebrospinal fluid from the lateral ventricle. A significantly greater concentration of HVA and 5-HIAA was found in the patients with considerable hydrocephalus caused by occlusion of the third ventricle, aqueduct or fourth ventricle as compared with the cases of supratentorial tumours and with cases of moderate hydrocephalus and partial block of fluid outflow caused by third ventricle tumorous or posterior fossa tumours.
