Adenocarcinoma of prostate presenting as brain metastasis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:To compare the diagnostic value of thoracoscopic biopsy, fluid cytology, and Abrams needle biopsy, the authors analyzed prospectively the records of 188 patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma examined between 1973 and 1990.
