Adult supratentorial extraventricular anaplastic ependymoma with cerebrospinal fluid dissemination metastases: a case report [PDF]
Frontiers in NeurologyBackgroundEpendymomas mostly locate in the infratentorial region and often occur in children. Anaplastic ependymomas account for 45–47% of supratentorial and 15–17% of infratentorial ependymomas, also known as malignant ependymomas.

Treatment outcome of anaplastic ependymoma under the age of 3 treated by intensity-modulated radiotherapy [PDF]
Radiat Oncol J, 2020 Purpose: Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) allows for more precise treatment, reducing unwanted radiation to nearby structures. We investigated the safety and feasibility of IMRT for anaplastic ependymoma patients below 3 years of age.
