Abstract
Glioblastoma in patients affected by NF1 germline mutation (NF1-associated GBM) represents a unique heterogeneous clinical and pathological entity. We have reviewed the few cases reported in the literature and they seem to have a better response to standard therapy and overall survival than GBM in the non-NF1 population. We present two cases of long-survival NF1 patients with GBM. Case 1 was a 38-year-old woman with cerebellar GBM who underwent surgical asportation and the Stupp protocol many times with an overall survival of 117 months. Case 2 was a 47-year-old woman with GBM in the eloquent area of the right frontal lobe; she underwent surgical asportation and the Stupp protocol with an overall survival of 25 months. The data analysis demonstrates that NF1-associated GBM patients could be considered long-term survivors.
期刊介绍：
Current Oncology is a peer-reviewed, Canadian-based and internationally respected journal. Current Oncology represents a multidisciplinary medium encompassing health care workers in the field of cancer therapy in Canada to report upon and to review progress in the management of this disease.
We encourage submissions from all fields of cancer medicine, including radiation oncology, surgical oncology, medical oncology, pediatric oncology, pathology, and cancer rehabilitation and survivorship. Articles published in the journal typically contain information that is relevant directly to clinical oncology practice, and have clear potential for application to the current or future practice of cancer medicine.
