Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Vestibular Schwannomas

2008
The purpose of this study was to analyze tumor control and possible complications of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) in patients with vestibular schwannomas using low marginal doses and conformal multiple shots to fit irregular tumor shapes. The authors evaluated 152 patients with more than 5 years of follow-up.

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery of Acoustic Neurinomas

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2001
The authors report on their series of 40 patients with 41 acoustic neurinomas (ACNs), including one patient with bilateral acoustic neurinomas suffering from neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF II) who were treated with the gamma knife unit at their institution between August 1992 and October 1995.

Gamma knife radiosurgery for intraventricular meningiomas

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2009
Intraventricular meningiomas are relatively rare tumors that may benefit from stereotactic radiosurgery as a minimally invasive treatment strategy. We report our experience using gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR) for intraventricular meningiomas.Over a 16-year period, we identified 9 patients with intraventricular meningiomas who were eligible for GKR out

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery of Paracentral Epilepsy

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2014
<b><i>Background:</i></b> In pharmacoresistant focal epilepsies involving the central region, risk of motor deficit generally contraindicates cortical resection. Gamma knife radiosurgery (GK) is an established treatment for mesial temporal epilepsy and epilepsy associated with hypothalamic hamartoma. <b><i>Objectives:

Gamma knife radiosurgery for orbital tumors

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2008
This study was performed to investigate the radiological and functional outcomes of patients with orbital tumors treated by gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS).Fifteen patients with orbital tumors (7 meningiomas, 3 cavernous hemangiomas, 2 schwannomas, 2 metastatic tumors and 1 adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland) were treated.

Gamma knife radiosurgery for trigeminal schwannomas

Surgical Neurology, 2004
Trigeminal schwannomas are uncommon tumors that may be microsurgically removed in selected cases, albeit with significant risk for new neurological morbidity. We evaluated the role of stereotactic radiosurgery as an alternative for patients with newly diagnosed or residual trigeminal schwannomas.The records of 23 patients who underwent radiosurgery for

[Radiosurgery with the gamma knife].

Rozhledy v chirurgii : mesicnik Ceskoslovenske chirurgicke spolecnosti, 1995
The conception of radiosurgery now more than 40 years old is realized in clinical practice during last 25 years. There were elaborated 3 main methods: focused irradiation by gamma knife, by accelerated heavy charged particles and by linear accelerator. The results led radiosurgery spread over the world.

Gamma knife radiosurgery for acoustic tumors

Operative Techniques in Neurosurgery, 2001
Stereotactic radiosurgery is a technique designed to produce a specific radiobiologic effect within a sharply defined target volume in a single session. Radiosurgery is a potentially effective alternative to surgical removal of small-sized to moderate-sized acoustic tumors.

Gamma knife radiosurgery for intracranial haemangioblastomas

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2007
The results of gamma knife radiosurgery for haemangioblastomas were retrospectively studied to assess the efficacy for tumour growth control and clarify the clinical indications for gamma knife radiosurgery in these tumours.The medical records of 22 patients with 67 tumours, 12 men and 10 women aged 20-73 years (mean 51.9 years), who underwent gamma ...
