Posterior fossa ependymomas in children: still a challenge for pediatric neurosurgeons and oncologists.

2021-01-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> Posterior fossa ependymomas in children are associated with a poor prognosis. This retrospective study tries to determine prognostic factors for the outcomes and the quality of life. Material and Methods: Thirty-three patients with posterior fossa ependymomas were treated from 2002 to 2018. All patients had a cranio-spinal MRI and 3.12% were metastatic. Removal was complete in 29 patients (...
