The International Meeting on Brain Oncology in Rennes was organised
in honor of Jean Pecker, to pay tribute to his contribution to the
development of neurological sciences and to take stock of the
current state of knowledge on brain tumors, a domain in which the
role of neurosurgery has been and will continue to be primordial.
During the two-day conference, the major themes of brain oncology
studies, both fundamental and clinical, were examined: oncogenesis,
tumoral markers and immunology, metabolic and diagnosis imaging,
prognostic factors and therapeutic strategies. The large number and
high quality of participations resulted in a genuinely synthetic
view of current advances in research, of which this book presents
the essentials. We have attempted both to preserve the richness of
scientific exchanges which occurred and to publish a great many
oral and poster communications. The book respects the organization
of conference sessions, and thus reflects the importance accorded
to glial tumor studies. This may seem disproportionate given their
frequency of occurrence in proportion to total numbers of
intracranial tumor processes, but their gravity and quasi-total
resistance to current therapeutic methods are ample justification.
Moreover, this is the domain in which hopes of progress are
beginning to appear, and it is becoming possible to envisage
treatment based on recently established fundamental knowledge.
