A preliminary report on the immunological monitoring of primary intracranial neoplasms is presented. The most important findings concerning B-cells and T-cells mediated immunity and delayed hypersensitivity reactions in this kind of patients, are discussed. Among the fairly significant immunobiological pictures, the Authors stress the "normal behaviour" of the B-cells dependent pool, the undebatable depression of the delayed hypersensitivity reactions, and the noticeable failure of the T-cell dependent pool, particularly marked in malignant gliomas, which are also characterized by the presence of cells with natural cytotoxic activity.

Abstract
A preliminary report on the immunological monitoring of primary intracranial neoplasms is presented. The most important findings concerning B-cells and T-cells mediated immunity and delayed hypersensitivity reactions in this kind of patients, are discussed. Among the fairly significant immunobiological pictures, the Authors stress the "normal behaviour" of the B-cells dependent pool, the undebatable depression of the delayed hypersensitivity reactions, and the noticeable failure of the T-cell dependent pool, particularly marked in malignant gliomas, which are also characterized by the presence of cells with natural cytotoxic activity.
