A retrospective analysis of recurrent intracranial ependymoma.

METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 22 patients with intracranial ependymoma and subsequent relapse(s) (59 recurrences) treated at Children's Hospital Los Angeles or New York University between January 1997 and December 2012. RESULTS Med...
متن کاملIntracranial ependymoma and subependymoma: MR manifestations.
In order to provide a detailed description of the MR appearance of intracranial ependymoma, the MR examinations of 12 patients (10 with ependymomas and two with subependymomas) were reviewed and correlated with operative and pathologic reports. Three of 10 ependymomas were intraventricular, two were intraparenchymal, and five were transependymal, extending from CSF spaces into parenchyma. Both ...

Conversely in the suratentorial fossa, up to 20% of childhood tumours arise in the suprasellar region with craniopharyngiomas, visual pathway gliomas, and germinomas as th...
متن کاملMultifactorial analysis of predictors of outcome in pediatric intracranial ependymoma.
Pediatric ependymomas are enigmatic tumors, and their clinical management remains one of the more difficult in pediatric oncology. The identification of biological correlates of outcome and therapeutic targets remains a significant challenge in this disease. We therefore analyzed a panel of potential biological markers to determine optimal prognostic markers. We constructed a tissue microarray ...
متن کاملChildhood intracranial ependymoma: twenty-year experience from a single institution.

In this article, they report their 20-year institutional experience with this disease. METHODS Medical records were reviews of ...
