The results of treatment of primary brain tumors in children.
Acta chirurgica Iugoslavica(2012)
摘要
During the period of 2009-2011 in UCH in Belgrade, we treated 22 patients with brain tumors. Treatment included the diagnosis and therapy that included surgery and postoperative neuroradiological follow-up of all patients regardless of whether radiotherapy was conducted with or without chemotherapy. The most frequent were low grade astrocytomas and medulloblastomas. Patients with supratentorial localization of tumor had significantly smaller neurological sequelae compared with patients with infratentorial as well as patients diagnosed with low grade astrocytomas of any localization. From 10 patients with supratentorial localization, 7 of them had no neurological deficit, while from 11 patients with infratentorial localization, 3 of them were Without deficit. Patients with histological diagnosis of low grade astrocytoma of any localization had less neurological deficits compared with other tumors. From 7 low grade astrocytoma in 5 of them there was no neurological deficit, while only in one patient residual tumor was verified. In 7 patients the rest of the tumor was diagnosed, while in 14 patients no residual tumors was diagnosed during follow-up based on the MRI diagnosis. Surgery, postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy in some cases represent an effective therapeutic approach in the treatment of brain tumors in children.
