Zusammenfassung

An Hand der elektronenmikroskopischen Befunde bei 14 endotheliomatösen, 3 fibromatösen und 3 angiomatösen Meningeomen wird das Vorkommen von Cilien und verwandten Strukturen bei diesen Tumoren zusammengestellt. Während Centrioli auch in angiomatösen Meningeomen gesehen wurden, waren sowohl Cilien als auch die übrigen ciliaren Strukturen nur bei endotheliomatösen und fibromatösen Meningeomen zu finden. Die verschiedenen Stadien der Cilienbildung und ihrer feinen Struktur sowie die Bildung der Basalkörper und Centriolen wurden eingehend beschrieben. Bei der weiten Verbreitung der Cilien in den verschiedenen Zellarten läßt das Vorkommen dieser Organellen keine Rückschlüsse auf die Histogenese der Meningeomzellen zu, weil sie bei Herkömmlingen aller Keimblätter beschrieben worden sind.

Summary

The occurrence of cilia and related structures were studied electron-microscopically in 14 endotheliomatous, 3 fibroblastic, and 3 angiomatous meningiomas. Centrioles were observed in angiomatous meningiomas, but cilia and other ciliary structures were found only in the endotheliomatous and fibroblastic meningiomas. The various stages of the formation of cilia and their fine structures could be described, as well as the formation of the basal corpuscle and the centrioles. Because cilia occur throughout the various cell types, no conclusions could be drawn as to the histogenesis of the meningioma cells, since they have been described in derivatives of all embryonic germ-cell layers.
