Pediatric Spinal Ependymomas.

CONCLUSIONS Laminoplasty and intraoperative neurophysiological monitorization are essential in surgical treatment of pediatric spinal ependymomas. GTR and recovery in pediatric spinal ependymoma are more likely than in adults. Despite the GTR, the risk of drop metastasis remains. Therefore, close clinical and radiological follow-up is recommended. PMID: 30287802 [PubMed - in process]
