Treatment of central neurocytomas.
Central neurocytomas are uncommon tumors of the CNS, representing approximately 0.1-0.5% of all primary CNS tumors. Patients most often present with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure (headache, nausea/vomiting, diplopia) due to obstructive hydrocephalus. Rarely, central neurocytomas may present with a hemorrhage. Central neurocytomas are intraventricular tumors with a predilection for...
متن کاملEstimation of proliferative potentiality of central neurocytoma: correlational analysis of minimum ADC and maximum SUV with MIB-1 labeling index.
BACKGROUND Central neurocytoma was initially believed to be benign tumor type, although atypical cases with more aggressive behavior have been reported. Preoperative estimation for proliferating activity of central neurocytoma is one of the most important considerations for determining tumor management. PURPOSE To investigate predictive values of image characteristics and quantitative measure...
متن کاملOperative Management of Intraventricular Central Neurocytomas: An Analysis of a Surgical Experience with 32 Cases.
AIM To better understand the clinical characteristics of central neurocytoma (CN), as well as to assess the optimum therapeutic schedule. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of 32 patients with CN who visited our department between January 2008 and January 2013. We analyzed the clinical and radiological presentations, tumor characteristics, surgical strategies, and the prognos...
متن کاملPatterns of failure after multimodal treatments for high-grade glioma: effectiveness of MIB-1 labeling index
BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study was to analyze the recurrence pattern of high-grade glioma treated with a multimodal treatment approach and to evaluate whether the MIB-1 labeling index (LI) could be a useful marker for predicting the pattern of failure in glioblastoma (GB). METHODS AND MATERIALS We evaluated histologically confirmed 131 patients with either anaplastic astrocytoma ...
متن کاملRadiation-induced meningiomas in multiple regions, showing rapid recurrence and a high MIB 1 labeling index: a case report and review of the literature
Combined chemotherapy and prophylactic cranial irradiation has improved the prognosis of children with acute leukemia. However cranial irradiation carries a latent risk of the induction of secondary intracranial tumors. We encountered a patient who developed multiple intracranial radiation-induced meningiomas (RIMs) 25 years after prophylactic cranial irradiation for the treatment of acute leuk...
