Deskripsi

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.
