Surgical salvage of recurrent vestibular schwannoma following prior stereotactic radiosurgery.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate outcomes of salvage surgery for vestibular schwannoma (VS) that failed primary stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). METHODS Case-control study of 37 patients who underwent surgical resection of sporadic VS following prior SRS at two tertiary academic referral centers between 2003 and 2015. A cohort of nonirradiated control subjects, matched according to tumor siz...
متن کاملLinear accelerator radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma.
OBJECT The use of radiosurgery in the treatment of acoustic neuromas has increased substantially during the last decade. Most published experience relates to the use of the gamma knife. In this report, the authors review the methods and results of linear accelerator (LINAC) radiosurgery in 44 patients with acoustic neuromas who were treated between 1993 and 1997. METHODS Computerized tomograp...
متن کاملTumor-volume changes after radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma: implications for follow-up MR imaging protocol.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The outcome of radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma (VS) is assessed by posttreatment measurement of tumor size and could be influenced by the timing and quality of the assessment. This study evaluates the volumetric changes of VS after radiosurgery and proposes a radiologic follow-up program. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of 142 patients with VS treated with radiosurgery, we...
متن کامل[High-grade glioma after stereotactic radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma].
Stereotactic radiosurgery undoubtedly represents an important therapeutic procedure for various intracranial pathologies, especially tumours, although they are not entirely complication-free. Radiosurgery have been considered a good management strategy for the majority of small-to-medium size vestibular schwannomas. The authors describe a case of high-grade glioma associated with a previous rad...
متن کاملVestibular Schwannoma: spontaneous tumor involution.
The natural history of Vestibular Schwannomas (VS) is yet not totally known, but most of them have the tendency to slow growth, sometimes without any kind of symptoms during the individuals entire time. About 69% of diagnosed VS do not grow at all and 16% of these can even regress. Considering tumors that grow, about 70% have grown less than 2mm an year. Advanced radiological diagnosis, especia...
