Brain Tumors in the Elderly
Arch Neurol 55:922-928, Lowry,J.K.,et al, 1998
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Elderly patients(>/=65 yeas)with malignant brain tumors are diagnosed as promptly as younger patients,although they have a markedly different constellation of symptoms.Since diagnosis of brain tumors continues to improve in the elderly,it may be more difficult to ascribe the steady increase in incidence to artifactual factors.
