Medulloblastoma--a changing prognosis?
87 of 90 consecutive cases of medulloblastoma diagnosed at The Hospital for Sick Children, London, in the 10-year period 1965-74 were followed-up until death or until 1 January 1978. Only one patient survived in the 1st 5-year period and is a cure. In the 2nd 5-year period 17 (41%) of 41 patients presenting are alive and, of these, 11 are 5-year survivors (=39% of possible 5-year survivors). Re...
متن کاملHistologic features and prognosis in pediatric medulloblastoma.
Because individual histologic features in childhood medulloblastoma alter survival likelihood, the recent 4th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Brain Tumors recognizes desmoplastic/nodular medulloblastoma, medulloblastoma with extensive nodularity, large cell medulloblastoma, and anaplastic medulloblastoma, in addition to medulloblastoma with no other distinguishi...
متن کاملImaging, Diagnosis, Prognosis Rapid Diagnosis of Medulloblastoma Molecular Subgroups
Purpose:Microarray studies indicate medulloblastoma comprises distinct molecular disease subgroups, which offer potential for improved clinical management. Experimental Design: Minimal mRNA expression signatures diagnostic for the Wnt/Wingless (WNT) and Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) subgroups were developed, validated, and used to assign subgroup affiliation in 173 tumors from four independent cohorts, ...
متن کاملMedulloblastoma: Tumor Biology and Relevance to Treatment and Prognosis Paradigm.
Medulloblastoma is a malignant embryonic brain tumor arising in the posterior fossa and typically occurring in pediatric patients. Current multimodal treatment regimes have significantly improved the survival rates; however, a marked heterogeneity in therapy response is observed, and one third of all patients die within 5 years after diagnosis. Large-scale genetic and transcriptome analysis rev...
متن کاملRisk factors for the prognosis of pediatric medulloblastoma: a retrospective analysis of 40 cases
OBJECTIVES: In this study, we evaluated the association of molecular subtypes, clinical characteristics and pathological types with the prognosis of patients with medulloblastoma. METHODS: We analyzed forty patients with medulloblastoma who underwent surgical resection at our center between January 2004 and June 2014. Risk factors associated with survival, disease progression and recurrence w...
