Management of high grade primary cerebellar tumours.
Cerebellar high-grade gliomas (cHGG) are uncommon in adults, making up only about 1% of all high-grade gliomas. These tumours differ from supratentorial high-grade gliomas (sHGG) in terms of epidemiology, molecular traits, and the age of the patients. cHGG patients are typically younger and show a higher frequency of neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) mutations, atypical RAS mutations, and H3K27M mutations. Standard treatment includes surgical resection followed by chemotherapy and radiation. Recent studies emphasize the genetic differences between cerebellar and supratentorial tumours, with new treatments targetting specific molecular abnormalities. Immunotherapy has shown limited effectiveness due to the unique tumour environment in cHGG, and further research is required to improve treatment strategies for these rare tumours.
期刊介绍:
Primarily being a medical journal, JPMA publishes scholarly research focusing on the various fields in the areas of health and medical education. It publishes original research describing recent advances in health particularly clinical studies, clinical trials, assessments of pathogens of diagnostic importance, medical genetics and epidemiological studies. Review articles highlighting importance of various issues in the domain of public health, drug research and medical education are also accepted. As a leading journal of South Asia, JPMA remains cognizant of the recent advances in the rapidly growing fields of biomedical sciences, it invites and encourages scholars to write short reviews and invited editorials on the emerging issues. We particularly aim to promote health standards of developing countries by encouraging manuscript submissions on issues affecting the public health and health delivery services.
