Adjuvant therapy versus surgery in controlling seizure in patients with low-grade glioma tumor
Introduction: Since surgical treatment for tumorous lesions does not always lead to complete patient recovery, it is possible for the attacks to continue. To help plan for the patients' health, this study aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of adjuvant therapy and surgery in controlling seizure of low-grade glioma (LGG) patients in Firoozgar Hospital in 2013-2014. Methods: In this analyti...
متن کاملAssociation of carcinoid tumor and low grade glioma
BACKGROUND Lung carcinoid tumor and low grade glioma are two uncommon malignancies. PATIENTS AND METHODS We report the case of 24-year-old man who presented with respiratory disease. Imaging investigations showed a right lung tumor and histological analysis confirmed a typical carcinoid tumor. As part of initial staging, brain MRI revealed an asymptomatic right frontal lesion. First, a right ...
متن کاملDifferential MRI analysis for quantification of low grade glioma growth
A differential analysis framework of longitudinal FLAIR MRI volumes is proposed, based on non-linear gray value mapping, to quantify low-grade glioma growth. First, MRI volumes were mapped to a common range of gray levels via a midway-based histogram mapping. This mapping enabled direct comparison of MRI data and computation of difference maps. A statistical analysis framework of intensity dist...
متن کاملManagement of Low-Grade Glioma
The optimal management of patients with low-grade glioma (LGG) is controversial. The controversy largely stems from the lack of well-designed clinical trials with adequate follow-up to account for the relatively long progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with LGG. Nonetheless, the literature increasingly suggests that expectant management is no longer optimal. Rather, there...
متن کاملA tumor growth inhibition model for low-grade glioma treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
PURPOSE To develop a tumor growth inhibition model for adult diffuse low-grade gliomas (LGG) able to describe tumor size evolution in patients treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Using longitudinal mean tumor diameter (MTD) data from 21 patients treated with first-line procarbazine, 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-l-nitrosourea, and vincristine (PCV) chemotherapy, we...
