Abstract

To clarify disease-free survival in adults with newly diagnosed CP depending on resection quality; to evaluate the effectiveness of stereotactic irradiation and treatment depending on histological characteristics of tumor. We analyzed treatment outcomes in 398 adults over 10-year follow-up. Stereotactic irradiation was performed in 11.6% of patients. The follow-up data were obtained in 68.1% of patients. We compared 5-year disease-free survival rates after different resections with and without subsequent irradiation. Total resection is effective and provides significantly lower risk of CP recurrence. Effectiveness of stereotactic irradiation after incomplete resection was also confirmed. Total resection of ACP and PCP provides high disease-free survival rates. Stereotactic irradiation after incomplete resection is followed by similar outcomes. PCPs are characterized by less aggressive growth and do not recur after total resection.
