Abstract

Low-grade gliomas (LGG), corresponding to WHO grades I and II, are an uncommon and heterogeneous group of tumors, which include several distinct histopathological types and subtypes. Because of their rarity, acquiring adequate data on which to base therapeutic decisions in such cases is difficult. According to present knowledge, it is reasonable to consider radiosurgery (in particular, Gamma Knife surgery) as a therapeutic option for some LGG. Nevertheless, there is a clear need for multicenter cooperation in order to augment the currently scanty data.

颅内低级别胶质瘤的立体定向放射外科治疗。

低级别胶质瘤(LGG)，对应于WHO分级I级和II级，是一种罕见且异质性的肿瘤，包括几种不同的组织病理学类型和亚型。由于它们的罕见性，很难获得足够的数据来根据这些病例做出治疗决定。根据目前的知识，考虑放射手术(特别是伽玛刀手术)作为一些LGG的治疗选择是合理的。然而，显然需要多中心合作，以增加目前缺乏的数据。

期刊介绍： Published since 1966, this series has become universally recognized as the most significant group of books serving neurological surgeons. Volumes feature contributions from distinguished international surgeons, who brilliantly review the literature from the perspective of their own personal experience. The result is a series of works providing critical distillations of developments of central importance to the theory and practice of neurological surgery.
