Stereotactic Radiosurgery for World Health Organization Grade 2 and 3 Oligodendroglioma: An International Multicenter Study.

Background And Objectives: Oligodendrogliomas are primary brain tumors classified as isocitrate deshydrogenase-mutant and 1p19q codeleted in the 2021 World Health Organization Classification of central nervous system tumors. Surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are well-established management options for these tumors. Few studies have evaluated the efficacy of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for oligodendroglioma.

Local control and patient survival after stereotactic radiosurgery for esophageal cancer brain metastases: an international multicenter analysis.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate local control (LC) of tumors, patient overall survival (OS), and the safety of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for esophageal cancer brain metastases (EBMs).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study used data from 15 International Radiosurgery Research Foundation facilities encompassing 67 patients with 185 EBMs managed using SRS between January 2000 and May 2022. The median patient age was 63 years, with a male predominance (92.

Primary and salvage radiosurgery for neurofibromatosis type 2-associated meningiomas.

Objective: The optimal management of neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2)-associated meningiomas must be personalized case by case. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is one option for patients with one or multiple intracranial meningiomas associated with the NF2 mutation. In this study, the authors evaluated their single-institution experience of SRS treatment for NF2-associated meningiomas.

Long-Term Outcomes of Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Pineocytomas: An International Multicenter Study.

Background And Objectives: Pineocytomas are grade 1 tumors arising from the pineal parenchyma. Gross total resection can potentially cure these benign lesions but can be associated with morbidity. This study was designed to provide multi-institutional data to evaluate the results of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for pineocytomas.

Outcomes Associated With Stereotactic Radiosurgery After Multiple Resections of Nonfunctioning Pituitary Macroadenomas: An International, Multicenter Case Series.

Background And Objectives: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) represents an effective treatment for nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs). However, no data have yet been published regarding results of SRS on NFPAs after multiple previous resections.

Methods: Retrospective multicentric data of patients diagnosed with NFPA and who underwent multiple resections (≥2) before SRS were reviewed and analyzed.
