Subcutaneously and intracerebrally transplanted neurinomas as well as intracerebrally grafted gliomas, both derived from primary tumors with resorptive carcinogens were investigated after injection of micropaque by conventional histologic methods and by postmortem X-ray analysis. Growth pattern and vasculature were similar in subcutaneously and intracerebrally transplanted malignant neurinomas. The most common feature was a parallel arrangement of vessels as shown by microradiography and vessel free zones. In intracerebrally grafted glioma, the growth of tumors was confined to or starting from the ventricular system. Sinusoidal vessels, capillary proliferations and proliferation of vessel wall were found. The outstanding feature was the occurrence of extravascular contrast deposits, thus indicating the vulnerability of tumor vessels and frequency of hemorrhages into these tumors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
