Neurocognitive evaluation of brain metastases patients treated with post-resection stereotactic radiosurgery: a prospective single arm clinical trial.

abstract：PURPOSE:To evaluate the effectiveness of complete resection and postoperative radiotherapy in spinal cord ependymomas. METHODS AND MATERIALS:We conducted a retrospective study over 20 patients (13 males and 7 females) with histologically confirmed spinal cord ependymomas between July 1985 and April 2001. Among them, 1...
