This volume contains the proceedings of the latest in a series of
international symposia on advances in neuro-oncology, held
September 26-29, 1990, in San Remo, Italy and sponsored by the
University of Pavia, I.R.C.C.S. Policlinico San Matteo (Pavia,
Italy) and the Giovanni Lorenzini Medical Foundation
(Milan-Houston). It drew papers from six continents of the world,
was attended by over 500 investigators, and demonstrated the
extraordinary vitality, depth and breadth of research which
characterizes modem neuro-oncology. Over the course of the last
decade, there has been a remarkable shift in research carried out
in the heterogeneous field of neuro-oncology, which appears to be
away from clinical descriptive studies, and toward more basic and
fundamental investigation of the pathology, immunohis tochemistry,
biochemical and cellular subsets of brain tumors. Besides the
traditional fields of neurology, neurosurgery, neuropathology, and
radiation therapy, there has been an increased interest and
involvement by investigators in the fields of medical oncology,
neuroradiology, immunology, and many areas of fundamental
neurobiology. It has become evident that interest has also been
exhibited in a broader spectrum of tumors than just the malignant
glial series, and studies in meningioma, craniopharyngioma,
neurinomas, and the pituitary tumors were reported. Several
sessions were devoted to the special problems of pediatric brain
tumors."
