Overview
[Diagnostic study] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on [diagnostic study] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
Some patients with oligodendroglioma may have elevated protein and cell count with normal glucose and lactate on CSF analysis, which is usually suggestive of hydrocephalus.[1]
Laboratory Findings
Lumbar Puncture
- Some patients with oligodendroglioma may have elevated protein and cell count with normal glucose and lactate on CSF analysis, which is usually suggestive of hydrocephalus.[1]
- Monocytes and lymphocytes may be observed on cytological CSF examination, but usually devoid of tumor cells.
