摘要
室管膜瘤是一种起源于室管膜上皮细胞的神经上皮性肿瘤,可发生于颅内及椎管内,并可沿蛛网膜下腔播散,目前还难以完全治愈。近年来,随着神经影像学、显微神经外科及放化疗技术的进步,室管膜瘤的诊断和治疗获得了较大的进步,在最近的一些报道中,全切率达到了85%,3年无进展生存率达到了75%,并且患者的生存质量也获得了较大的改善。本文简要回顾了近年来室管膜瘤病理学及诊断治疗方面的新进展。
Ependymoma is a special type of gliomas,derived from a neoplastic; transformation of the ependymal cells, They can arise from intracranial space and spinal cord and can hardly been cured. Recent advances in neuroimaging, neurosurgery and radiation therapy have improved disease control and functional outcomes for the patient with ependymoma. The rate of gross-total resection has been increased to 85% in some series and 3 year progression-free survival after radiation therapy as high as 75% has been reported along with significant reductions in neurologic, endocrine and cognitive deficits, In this paper, the authors compiled a review of recent advances on the pathological features, imaging characteristics, and treatment strategies related to this tumor,
