对16例髓母细胞瘤患者进行了75次脑脊液多胺测定。用于评价患者状态与多胺浓度相关性的参数包括神经系统检查、计算机断层扫描、放射性核素扫描、脊髓造影和脑脊液细胞学检查。16例患者中有15例显示与最终临床表现绝对相关。1例患者的1次测定结果为假阴性。迄今为止没有观察到假阳性。
Seventy-five cerebrospinal fluid polyamine determinations were evaluated in 16 patients with medulloblastoma. Parameters utilized in evaluating patient status for correlation with the polyamine concentrations were neurological examination, computerized tomography, radionuclide scan, myelography, and cerebrospinal fluid cytology. Fifteen of the 16 patients showed absolute correlation with the eventual clinical picture. One determination on one patient resulted in a false negative. No false positives have been observed to date.
