Stereotactic radiosurgery of intracranial chordomas, chondrosarcomas, and glomus tumors.
Chordomas and chondrosarcomas are rare, slow-glowing, locally aggressive tumors with high recurrence rates. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an important management option for patients with recurrent or residual chordomas and chondrosarcomas. Glomus jugulare tumor are rare highly vascularized tumors that arise from the paraganglionic structures of the glossopharyngeal and vagal nerves. Becaus...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for the treatment of Glomus Jugulare Tumors
BACKGROUND The glomus jugulare tumor is a slowly growing benign neoplasm originating from neural crest. There is a high morbidity associated with surgical resection of glomus jugulare. Radiosurgery play a relevant role as a therapeutic option in these tumors and its use has grown in popularity. The authors describe a retrospective series of 15 patients and reviewed the literature about the glom...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery as a primary treatment modality for pineal parenchymal tumors
Background: Pineal parenchymal tumor (PPT) is extremely rare and histologically heterogeneous, and the optimal treatment strategy is controversial. This study examined clinical outcomes of patients with PPT treated with cyberknife radiosurgery (CKRS) as a primary treatment modality after tumor biopsy. Materials and Methods: Between 2009 and 2018, there were six patients diagnosed with PPT who w...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for intracranial tumors: a single center experience
Stereotactic radiosurgery is being increasingly used for the treatment of both benign and malignant disorders such as brain metastasis, spinal cord tumors, intracranial blood vessel abnormalities and neurological/functional problems such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, obsessive-compulsive disorder and trigeminal neuralgia. The purpose of this report was to present our experience at the Depar...
متن کاملStereotactic Radiosurgery for Brain Tumors
Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) is a non-invasive technique for the delivery of highly focused ionizing radiation with extreme precision. It is used in neurosurgical practice as a less invasive means of targeting benign and malignant brain tumors, vascular malformations, and functional disorders. Its ability to elicit a desired response (e.g. tumor cell death) with minimal effect on normal surr...
