Abstract Background: Intracranial lymphoma remains a challenging differential diagnosis in daily neurosurgical practice. We analyzed our early experience with a surgical series of frameless neuronavigated biopsies in Primary

at our center in a 24-month period (1/1/2019 to 31/12/2020) were analyzed. Our cohort included 6 patients
(4 males), with a median age of 67 years (59–82). A total of 45 samples were evaluated… More >
