Clinical characteristics and analysis of cerebrospinal fluid biochemical, tumor markers and cytologic indices in 209 patients with meningeal carcinomatosis: a cross-sectional study

In this study, it is clear that the clinical characteristics of MC patients and the CSF indicators have specific distribution patterns, and the combined analysis of CSF biochemical indicators, TMr levels and cytomorphology can provide a key basis for the diagnosis of MC, the indication of primary foci and the monitoring of the disease, and the large-scale single-center data provide a reliable support for its clinical application.
