Zn2 + is a novel ionic mediator of neurotoxic injury in central nervous system. Zn2 + homeostasis in hippocampal Zinc-rich mossy fiber (MF) pathway is important in keeping the balance between excitatory and inhibitory system, and in maintaining cognitive functions of the brain. Abnormal Zn2+

Background/aim: Seizures are a serious condition for patients with brain metastases. Prevalence, risk factors and a potential association of seizures with survival prior to whole-brain irradiation (WBI) for cerebral metastases were retrospectively

BACKGROUND The prevalence, risk factors, and clinical implication of seizure development were investigated in patients with metastatic brain tumors. METHODS Medical records and radiological findings were analyzed retrospectively in 258 patients with brain metastasis from lung cancer who underwent

Seizure is a foreseeable risk in patients with brain lesion. However, seizure during treating non-brain lesion is not a familiar situation to neurosurgeon. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a relatively common situation after systemic chemotherapy. The aim of this study is to

Neurologic symptoms commonly occur in oncology patients, and in some cases they may be the presenting symptom of malignancy. Cancer-related neurologic syndromes are rarely pathognomonic and must be differentiated from other benign or serious conditions. This article reviews common neuro-oncologic

Background/aim: Seizures impair patients' quality of life. The prognostic role of pre-treatment seizures in patients with 1-3 cerebral metastases receiving local therapies plus whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) was investigated.
