Abstract

The work is based on the analysis of 255 patients with gliomas. We studied perifocal zone in this patients using MRI. The size of perifocal zone in patients with gliomas is determined the peculiarity of clinical manifestations. The general cerebral syndrome and drop symptoms are more expressive in patients with large perifocal zone. The remote symptoms stand out on the first plan.
