Abstract:

Complex management of patients with intracranial pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) consists of surgical treatment, drug therapy (mainly in young children) and radiotherapy. For many years, radiotherapy (RT) has been a standard for residual tumors, recurrence or continued growth of PA. Currently, stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy are preferred for PA, because these procedures are characterized by high conformity and selectivity, precise irradiation of tumor with minimal damage to surrounding intact tissues. Stereotaxic approach is very important since PAs are localized near functionally significant and radiosensitive brain structures in most cases. There is significant experience of single-center studies devoted to radiotherapy of patients with PA at the Department of Neuroradiosurgery of the Burdenko Neurosurgery Center. In this research, the authors analyzed the results of stereotactic irradiation of 430 patients with PA for the period from 2005 to 2018.
