Large cystic craniopharyngioma management combining cyst puncture through an Ommaya reservoir with hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy was evaluated. The planning optimization was focused on the gradient and selectivity. Punctured and filled cyst treatment plans were compared with a retrospective analysis of volumetric and functional outcomes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
