		Simultaneous supratentorial and infratentorial intracranial pressure recordings performed in seven of the patients showed a pressure gradient between the supratentorial and infratentorial compartments with a higher supratentorial pressure before shunt revision.
		In six cases supratentorial intracranial pressure (ICP) was recorded with the aid of a coronal extradural sensor (Plastimed, Saint-Leu La Forêt, France) filled with saline and connected to a transducer (either an 800 Bentley Trantec [Kontron S.A. Trappes, France] or an HP 1280 [Hewlett-Packard, Orsay, France]).
		Supratentorial and infratentorial pressures were recorded in one (Case 19) of the eight patients who were treated successfully by third ventriculostomy.

	Brain Tumor: Childhood Supratentorial Primitive Neuroectodermal and Pineal Tumors
		However, childhood supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal and pineal tumors are primary brain tumors-that is, they are brain tumors in which cancerous cells begin to grow in the tissues of the brain.
		Childhood supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors are called supratentorial tumors because they affect the tissues overlying the tentorium cerebelli in the brain.
		A child's treatment and chance of recovery (prognosis) depend on the type and size of tumor, where it is located within the brain, and his or her age and general health.

		Undifferentiated neuroectodermal tumors of the cerebellum have historically been referred to as medulloblastomas, while tumors of identical histology in the pineal region are diagnosed as pineoblastomas.
		Studies have suggested that there are different molecular genetic aberrations in the tumor cells of medulloblastomas and supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors.[1,2] This group also includes some tumors formerly called central neuroblastomas.

		Fifty patients of intracranial space occupying lesions of supratentorial region, above 10 years of age, attending the neurosurgery OPD were included in the study, irrespective of the nature of pathology.
		In the present study of 44 supratentorial tumors, inclusive of 18 chiasmal tumors, all varieties of field defects were observed.
		The results indicated that it was capable of reliably detecting and quantitating the visual field defects in patients of supratentorial tumors and thus assisted in establishing the diagnosis of location of the tumour in 72% of patients in the present series when compared with CT scan.

	Surgery for primary supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage (Cochrane Review) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Background: There is considerable international variation in the rate and indications of surgery for primary supratentorial intracerebral haematoma, reflecting the uncertainty about the effects of surgery.
		The result was inconclusive in the two trials with patients confirmed as having primary supratentorial intracerebral haematoma by CT. Endoscopic evacuation was not shown to significantly decrease the odds of death and dependency among survivors in one trial involving 100 patients (odds ratio 0.45, 99% confidence interval 0.15 to 1.33).
		Authors' conclusions: There is not enough evidence to evaluate the effect of craniotomy or stereotactic surgery, or endoscopic evacuation in patients with supratentorial intracerebral haematoma.
