Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:The purpose of this report was to review our experience with stereotactic radiosurgery in the management of patients with residual neurocytomas after initial surgery. METHODS:Between October 1996 and December 2001, four patients with central neurocytoma were treated by surgery and subsequently underwent linear accelerator (LINAC) radiosurgery. RESULTS:Two of the patients were cured, one exhibited a significant reduction in tumour size and the fourth remains stable. All four patients are alive and well. CONCLUSIONS:In cases of small residual tumours or recurrences radiosurgery allows open surgery to be avoided and is a safe and potentially effective approach.
