POSTERIOR-FOSSA STEREOTAXIC BIOPSY USING THE BROWN-ROBERTS-WELLS STEREOTAXIC SYSTEM - TECHNICAL NOTE JOURNAL OF NEUROSURGERY Guthrie, B. L., Steinberg, G. K., Adler, J. R. 1989; 70 (4): 649-652

Abstract

Stereotaxic biopsy has been shown to be a reliable means of diagnosing posterior fossa lesions. The authors describe a technique for infratentorial transcerebellar stereotaxic access to posterior fossa parenchymal lesions using the Brown-Roberts-Wells apparatus in its standard commercial configuration. The necessity for tissue diagnosis of these lesions is briefly discussed.
