Stereotaxic biopsies were performed in a series of 14 patients with clinical and computed tomographic evidence of a brain-stem lesion. Seven of these cases were in the paediatric age group (under 15 years of age). Biopsies were obtained by means of the Leksell stereotaxic system, through the transce
Stereotactic biopsy has evolved as a powerful and safe tool to provide tissue diagnoses with minimal disruption of normal functioning brain. It plays a significant role in the management of malignant brain tumors, where the benefit of open surgery might not justify the concomitant risks. Stereotacti
MCJ (DNAJD1) is a recently discovered member of the DNAJ protein family whose expression is controlled epigenetically by methylation of a CpG island located within the 5' transcribed region of its gene. Methylation-dependent transcriptional silencing of MCJ has been observed in ovarian cancers and a
