Pediatric-Like Brain Tumors in Adults
Adv Tech Stand Neurosurg. 2024;50:147-183. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-53578-9_5.ABSTRACTPediatric brain tumors are different to those found in adults in pathological type, anatomical site, molecular signature, and probable tumor drivers. Although these tumors usually occur in childhood, they also rarely present in adult patients, either as a de novo diagnosis or as a delayed recurrence of a pediatric tumor in the setting of a patient that has transitioned into adult services.Due to the rarity of pediatric-like tumors in adults, the literature on these tumor types in adults is often limited to small case series, and treatment d...

Ependymoma from Benign to Highly Aggressive Diseases: A Review
Adv Tech Stand Neurosurg. 2024;50:31-62. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-53578-9_2.ABSTRACTEpendymomas comprise biologically distinct tumor types with respect to age distribution, (epi)genetics, localization, and prognosis. Multimodal risk-stratification, including histopathological and molecular features, is essential in these biologically defined tumor types. Gross total resection (GTR), achieved with intraoperative monitoring and neuronavigation, and if necessary, second-look surgery, is the most effective treatment. Adjuvant radiation therapy is mandatory in high-risk tumors and in case of residual tumor. There is yet growing e...
