Abstract

An epidemiological study of brain tumours in elderly Japanese was undertaken on the basis of a report from the All Japan Brain Tumor Registry. Thus, the recent status of brain tumours in elderly Japanese could be clarified. Accordingly, the formerly compiled characteristics of brain tumours in the elderly should more or less be revised. However, we are all still facing the same unfavourable prognosis of brain tumours in the elderly as before.
