BACKGROUND
Chordoma is a rare and a slow-growing tumor originating from the notochord and commonly localized in the skull base. Surgery and occasionally radiotherapy have emerged as the treatments of choice. In the relapsed situations available treatment options are strictly limited; however,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the neurological complications after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT).
METHODS
The Ramathibodi Radiosurgery Unit started its service in August 1997, using the linear-accelerator based system. There were 144 patients treated from August 1997 to
BACKGROUND
We describe a patient with an intracranial extra skeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC), an unusual neoplasm of the deep soft tissues of the extremities. Very rarely are they localised as an intracranial lesion, and we believe it is very important to accurately distinguish EMC from other
At the Centre de Protontherapie d'Orsay, nine children with intra-cranial malignancies were treated between July 1994 and January 1998. Immediate and late tolerances were excellent in all cases (follow-up 2 to 50 months). Two patients recurred locally (marginal failures), seven are alive and doing
Bone xanthoma is an extremely rare and benign tumor in terms of its nature and growth over time. We describe the first case coexisting with ventriculomegaly secondary to aqueduct stenosis (non-tumoral hydrocephalus), the second xanthoma of the clivus described to date. The patient was a 51-year-old
Chordoid meningioma is a relatively rare variant that is often associated with peritumoral lymphoplasmacellular infiltration causing Castleman syndrome (CS). We present a 44-year-old woman with chordoid meningioma not associated with CS. The patient presented with epilepsy and right hemiparesis
A case of chordoid meningioma occurring in a 15-year-old girl is presented. The patient manifested seizures as the initial symptom and subsequently exhibited subclinical microcytic hypochromic anemia. The tumor, located in the falcotentorial region and associated with diffuse edema, was totally
The evolution of the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal technique, which was initially reserved only for sellar lesions through the sphenoid sinus cavity, has lead in the last decades to a progressive possibility to access the skull base from the nose. This route allows midline access and
