A positive ventriculography with fatty and water soluble contrast substances (myodil, conray, dinner - x, amipaque) was performed in 87 patients with gliomas of the frontal lobe 36 cases), temporal (22 cases) and parietal (29 cases) lobes. Gliomas of the frontal and temporal lobes penetrating into the cavity of the lateral ventricles from an "amputation" of the anterior or inferior horn. Gliomas of the parietal lobe penetrated into the upper--outer wall of the triangle of the lateral ventricle and creates a defect of filling around which a certain "plication" develops. A common symptom of glioma penetration into the brain ventricles is its tuberous polycyclicity, an uneveness of the edges of the ventricles. The author describes some diagnostical signs of a penetrating glioma into the corpus callosum and subcortical nodes.
