Craniospinal irradiation using helical tomotherapy for central nervous system tumors

The aim of this study was to describe early and late toxicity, survival and local control in 45 patients with primary brain tumors treated with helical tomotherapy craniospinal irradiation (HT-CSI). From 2006 to 2014, 45 patients with central nervous system malignancies were treated with HT-CSI. The most common tumors were medulloblastoma in 20 patients, ependymoma in 10 patients, intracranial ...

Case Report of Bone Marrow-Sparing Proton Therapy Craniospinal Irradiation for Central Nervous System Myelomatosis

Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is rare but it is an increasingly recognized complication of the multiple myeloma. The craniospinal radiotherapy is a standard treatment option, however, it may be challenging to deliver due to hematologic toxicity in the patients with multiple prior systemic therapies. We report a case of CNS myelomatosis in a patient with prior stem cell transplant mul...

ADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...

Central nervous system leukemia in children with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia.

Factors contributing to the development of central nervous system (CNS) leukemia, and the impact of leukemic involvement of this site on subsequent remission length, were determined in 184 children with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia who had been treated in two successive clinical trials. Preventive CNS therapy in both studies consisted of intrathecal methotrexate (12 mg/m2) given monthly duri...
