title: Tumours of the thalamic region. A retrospective study of 27 cases.
abstract: Twenty seven patients with thalamic tumours were evaluated retrospectively in the Neurosurgical Clinic of the University Hospital in Groningen between 1969 and 1983. The diagnosis was based on neuroradiological studies. The authors recommend stereotactic biopsy of thalamic tumours followed by irradiation in selected cases.
