在比较肿瘤病理学的第一个现代研究中，Bland-Sutton（4）指出，“没有肿瘤是人类特有的”。虽然这一观点得到了后续观察的普遍支持，但在人类以外的动物中发生神经胶质瘤和其他中枢神经系统肿瘤的罕见报道似乎很重要。然而，这种低发生率可能比真实的更明显。在最近一篇关于这一主题的论文中，Grun（20）指出，动物大脑的死后检查相对较少，并且可能的中枢神经系统肿瘤携带者经常在没有充分研究的情况下被屠宰。
对人类脑肿瘤研究的兴趣增强，反映在动物脑肿瘤报告数量的增加上，特别是在过去十年中，但其中许多病例描述不充分，甚至很难进行近似分类。因此，有一个明确的需要更广泛的信息比较病理学的神经系统肿瘤。本文旨在通过对有关低等动物神经胶质瘤的文献进行简短的批判性回顾，以及对普通家禽中另外两例病例的报告，对该主题做出贡献。
In one of the first modern studies of comparative tumor pathology, Bland-Sutton (4) stated that “no tumors are peculiar to man.” While this view was supported in general by subsequent observations, the infrequent reports of gliomas and other tumors of the central nervous system in animals other than man seemed to be significant. This low incidence, however, is probably more apparent than real. In a recent dissertation on the subject, Grun (20) points out that post-mortem examination of the brain in animals is performed comparatively infrequently and that possible carriers of tumors of the central nervous system are often disposed of by slaughter without adequate study.
Enhanced interest in the study of brain tumors in man has been reflected in the increased number of reports of cerebral neoplasms in animals, especially during the past decade, but many of these cases have been so inadequately described that even an approximate classification is difficult. There is thus a definite need for wider information on the comparative pathology of tumors of the nervous system. The present communication aims to contribute to the subject by a brief critical review of the literature on gliomas in the lower animals, and by the reports of two additional cases in the common fowl.
