Abstract

After a short anatomical review about the neighbourhood of the lamina quadrigemina 23 patients with different processes in the pineal region were investigated with regard to their neurological symptoms and radiological findings. Symptoms of the eyes in conjunction with signs of elevated intracranial pressure in most of the cases show the way to the diagnosis which will be completed by ventriculography, angiography, and recently by computer tomography with regard to the expansion of the process; any prediction about the kind of tumour is possible only in a little percentage.
