Although treatment of LM is palliative and the expected median survival of patients is 4 to 6 months it often provides stabilization and protection from further neurological deterioration. Lymphomatous meningitis has a better outlook with a median survival of more than 6 months but diagnosis may be delayed and treatment is not curative.
Carcinomatous meningitis specifically leptomeningeal metastases from solid tumors has a dismal prognosis with an overall median survival of 2 to 4 months. Flow cytometry meningitis cytology lymphoma leukemia intrathecal chemotherapy. INTRODUCTION Improved remission rates and survival of patients with cancer may increase the incidence of central nervous system CNS disease recurrence1-4 Before the development of effective chemotherapy regimens CNS recurrence was relatively.
Meanwhile several phase II studies or larger case series with DepoCyte in patients with lymphomatous or leukemic meningitis have been reported and similarly to the data published by Glantz et al response rates in the range of 50 to 70 were. However rates of early relapse have been reduced compared with those seen in systemic chemo - therapy alone. 3031 Intraventricular rituximab may be of particular interest.
A phase 1 study reported that intra - ventricular rituximab was tolerable. 32 Overall and com - plete response rates were 75 and 43 respectively. Lymphomatous meningitis LM due to primary central nervous system CNS lymphoma is an uncommon problem in neurooncology and can occur at time of diagnosis or recurrence.
Notwithstanding frequent focal signs and symptoms LM is a disease affecting the entire neuraxis and therefore staging and treatment need to encompass all cerebrospinal fluid CSF compartments. Patients with NM often experience disabling multifocal neurological deficits with a median survival that rarely exceeds 6 months. 12 Although NM is nearly always fatal early diagnosis may allow more treatment options and may increase the time to neurological disease progression and improve prognosis.
12 Because intrathecal chemotherapy can penetrate a depth of only 1 to 2 mm later. Meningioma survival rate Low grade grade 1 More than 80 of people with this type of meningioma survive for 5 years or more after diagnosis. High grade grade 3.
The meningioma survival rate is higher than that associated with most other types of brain tumors primarily because meningiomas are usually noncancerous and slow to grow. For these reasons many patients are considered to be good candidates for surgery and it is often possible for a neurosurgeon to remove an entire meningioma tumor. About 10 to 20 of children who survive bacterial meningitis develop severe sequelae such as sensorineural hearing loss motor problems seizures and mental retardation.

The median survival ranges from 3 to 7 months but most reports include a small number of patients who survive considerably longer with up to 11 surviving more than 1 year. Among those who survive the meningococcal disease 10-20 experience neurologic sequelae. A cohort study from Netherlands the Meningitis.
Average five year survival 85 USA Frequency. 49 million 2015 Deaths. Although a large autopsy series has revealed that invasion of the meninges by B-cell CLL occurs in 20 of cases1 clinical syndromes are exceedingly rare2 Two reviews have been published recently one of them collating 21 cases3 and the other 13 cases4 In the first review however 6 cases are reported to pertain to a subset of cases with T-cell phenotype and in the second there were 4.
Neoplastic meningitis is a feared complication in cancer patients the median survival ranging from some weeks to a few months. Management is palliative and aims to provide symptoms relief while delaying neurological deterioration. Intrathecal methotrexate andor cytarabine is the most widely used treatment in such clinical situations.
