✦ Synopsis

Leukocyte alkaline phosphatase (LAP) activity in peripheral blood was determined in 54 patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD), 11 patients with primary brain tumor, and 23 patients with metastatic brain tumor. The LAP score of the primary brain tumor patients (155 -+ 40) was significantly higher (lY0.03) than the LAP score for cerebrovascular disease patients (96 t 87). The LAP score levels of the metastatic brain tumor patients (251 ? 55) was significantly higher as compared with both the cerebrovascular disease ( K O . 0 0 1 ) and primary brain tumor groups (P<O.OOl). The LAP score could serve as an additional, although non-specific, marker to assist in the differentiation between cerebrovascular disease and brain tumors.

For this reason, the authors see more patients who develop a second primary tumor. The etiology of the second tumor can be the same as the first, whether treatment-induced or
