Neuron specific enolase (NSE) in the cerebros-pinal fluid (CSF) and serum of 54 cases of braintumors, in the tumor tissues of 10 brain tumors and in the cyst fluids of 7 brain tumors was me-asured by radioimmunoassay with NSE measure-ment kit (Eiken Chemistry co.)

NSE values in the cerebrospinal fluid of 35 ma-lignant brain tumors showed abnormal increase higher than 10 ng/ml in 17 cases (about 50%) of them, whereas all of benign cases were lower than 10 ng/ml. The means and standard deviations of NSE in the cerebrospinal fluid of malignant tu-mors were 20. 63±20. 78 ng/ml in the astrocytoma grade 3 and 4, 19. 73±15. 5 ng/ml in the medul-loblastoma and 12. 4±8. 9 ng/ml in the germ cell tumor. NSE values in the CSF of 12 brain tumors with intrathecal metastasis were 28. 0± 18. 9 ng/ml (mean ± SD) showing about three times as much as those without intrathecal metastasis. There was significant difference between these groups (p< O. 01). All cyst fluids including in 7 cases of brain tumors demonstrated high values of NSE even if they were benign tumor and their NSE values in CSF were normal. NSE values of brain tumor tis-sues had no correlation with malignancy, but were higher in the periphery of the tumors than in the center.

NSE values of CSF in brain tumors might be changed in relation with the improvement or de-terioration on clinical state and CT. It might be suggested that the measurement of NSE in the CSF had significance as a monitor of therapeutic efficacy and prognosis for the brain tumors.
