Journal of Child Neurology, 2009
The authors provide an update on most issues related to biology, diagnosis, and treatment of children with ependymoma based on a literature review. Ependymoma is the third most common brain tumor in children and overall survival ranges from 24% to 75% at 5 years. The extent of surgical resection remains the principal risk factor that clearly influences

Pediatric Neurosurgery, 1988
Ependymomas originate throughout the central nervous system (CNS), representing 10–12% of CNS tumors in children. The majority occur in children less than 5 years of age. Tumors occur most often in the 4th ventricular region. Current controversies regarding ependymomas include histologic categorization or ‘differentiation’.

Child's Nervous System, 1998
Ependymoma is a rare tumor entity. It affects children and adults and has four preferential locations: supra- and infra-tentorial, spinal, and conus-cauda-filum. For statistical reasons, therefore, it is difficult to identify prognostic factors in series from single institutions because of the limited number of cases.

Clinically significant spinal implants develop in intracranial ependymomas. Spinal subarachnoid implants developed in 11 of 32 patients who received local irradiation at the University of Michigan between 1955 and 1972 for intracranial ependymoma. Seven of these patients received spinal axis irradiation for neurological disturbances resulting from the ...

Ependymomas are uncommon neoplasms of the central nervous system (CNS), and as a consequence, few randomized, clinical trials have been performed, thereby limiting treatment guidelines. A review of the literature would permit the following conclusions regarding treatment.

Histone serotonylation regulates ependymoma tumorigenesis
NatureBidirectional communication between tumours and neurons has emerged as a key facet of the tumour microenvironment that drives malignancy1,2. Another hallmark feature of cancer is epigenomic dysregulation, in which alterations in gene expression influence

Ependymoma of the neurohypophysis
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2001There are two reported cases of ependymomas arising in the pituitary fossa; one in a human, the other in a horse. Both died during their stay in hospital. The case presented here is the first published case of a patient who is well 3 months after surgery.

The Immunophenotype of Ependymomas
Applied Immunohistochemistry & Molecular Morphology, 2000The morphologic distinction of ependymomas with epithelial cytology from metastatic carcinoma may pose a significant problem in differential diagnosis. The known presence of keratin in glioma cells further complicates the issue. Using the labeled streptavidin-biotin method with automated staining, we studied epithelial and glial marker expression in 52

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2010
Ependymomas are rare primary central nervous system tumors in adults. They occur most commonly in the spinal cord, where histopathologic evaluation is critical to differentiate the grade I myxopapillary ependymoma from the grade II ependymoma or grade III anaplastic ependymoma. Brain ependymomas are either grade II or III.

Human Pathology, 1991
A mediastinal ependymoma in a 35-year-old Caucasian woman is reported. The tumor was located in a paravertebral posterior mediastinal location. No continuity with the spinal canal or with the lung was identified. The diagnosis was confirmed by immunoperoxidase staining for glial fibrillary protein and by the presence of cilia within intracytoplasmic ...
