                   Pontine gliomas
•Brain stem tumors account for 10 percent of pediatric brain
tumors. The peak incidence is between ages 5 and 10.

Pontine Gliomas - The patients' symptoms often improve
dramatically during or after six weeks of irradiation.
Unfortunately, problems usually recur after six to nine
months, and progress rapidly. Survival past 12 to 14 months
is uncommon, and new approaches to treating these
tumors are urgently needed.
Midbrain/Medullary Gliomas - With the use of radiation
therapy, these patients often to well. Long-term survival
ranges from 65 to 90 percent for brain stem tumors that
arise from the midbrain or medulla.                                                3 yr, F, ICP signs, cerebellum – tonsillar herniation

          •Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and
          most aggressive malignant primary brain tumor in humans,
          involving glial cells and accounting for 52% of all functional
          tissue brain tumor cases and 20% of all intracranial tumors.
          Despite being the most prevalent form of primary brain

          people in Europe and North America. According to
          the WHO classification of the tumors of the central nervous
          system, the standard name for this brain tumor is
          "glioblastoma"; it presents two variants: giant cell
          glioblastoma and gliosarcoma.
          •Treatment can involve chemotherapy, radiation,
          radiosurgery, corticosteroids, antiangiogenic therapy,
          surgery[1] and experimental approaches such as gene
          transfer.[2]

                          Low grade gliomas
          Gliomas are named according to the specific type of cell they share histological
          features with, but not necessarily originate from. The main types of gliomas are:
          Ependymomas — ependymal cells.
          Astrocytomas — astrocytes (glioblastoma multiforme is the most common
          astrocytoma).
          Oligodendrogliomas — oligodendrocytes.
Case 5
     5.   Mixed gliomas, such as oligoastrocytomas, contain cells from different types of
          glia.

          Gliomas are further categorized according to their grade, which is determined
          by pathologic evaluation of the tumor.

          Low-grade gliomas [WHO grade II] are well-differentiated (not anaplastic);
          these are not benign but still portend a better prognosis for the patient.
          High-grade [WHO grade III-IV] gliomas are undifferentiated or anaplastic; these
          are malignant and carry a worse prognosis.

•Arteriovenous malformation or AVM is an abnormal connection
between veins and arteries, usually congenital. This pathology is widely known because of its
occurrence in the central nervous system, but can appear in any location. An arteriovenous
malformation is a vascular anomaly. It is a RASopathy. The Spetzler-Martin grading system
developed at the Barrow Neurological Institute is utilized by neurosurgeons to determine
operative versus nonoperative management when approaching these lesions.

•A vestibular schwannoma, often called an acoustic neuroma,[1] is
a benign primary intracranial tumor of the myelin-forming cells of the vestibulocochlear
nerve(CN VIII).[2] The term "vestibular schwannoma" involves the vestibular portion of
the 8th cranial nerve[3] and arises from Schwann cells, which are responsible for
themyelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system. Approximately 3,000 cases are
diagnosed each year in the United States with a prevalence of about 1 in 100,000
worldwide. It comprises 5-10% of all intracranial neoplasms in adults. Incidence peaks in
the fifth and sixth decades and both sexes are affected equally.

Pontine gliomas •Brain stem tumors account for 10 percent of pediatric brain tumors. The peak incidence is between ages 5 and 10. Pontine Gliomas - The patients' symptoms often improve dramatically during or after six weeks of irradiation. Unfortunately, problems usually recur after six to nine months, and progress rapidly. Survival past 12 to 14 months is uncommon, and new approaches to treating these tumors are urgently needed. Midbrain/Medullary Gliomas - With the use of radiation therapy, these patients often to well. Long-term survival ranges from 65 to 90 percent for brain stem tumors that arise from the midbrain or medulla. 3 yr, F, ICP signs, cerebellum – tonsillar herniation 12

Glioblastoma multiforme •Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and most aggressive malignant primary brain tumor in humans, involving glial cells and accounting for 52% of all functional tissue brain tumor cases and 20% of all intracranial tumors. Despite being the most prevalent form of primary brain Case 3. tumor, GBM incidence is only 2–3 cases per 100,000 , y p , people in Europe and North America. According to the WHO classification of the tumors of the central nervous system, the standard name for this brain tumor is "glioblastoma"; it presents two variants: giant cell glioblastoma and gliosarcoma. •Treatment can involve chemotherapy, radiation, radiosurgery, corticosteroids, antiangiogenic therapy, surgery[1] and experimental approaches such as gene transfer.[2] 19

    2012.10.30. Low grade gliomas Gliomas are named according to the specific type of cell they share histological features with, but not necessarily originate from. The main types of gliomas are: Ependymomas — ependymal cells. Astrocytomas — astrocytes (glioblastoma multiforme is the most common astrocytoma). Oligodendrogliomas — oligodendrocytes. Case 5 5. Mixed gliomas, such as oligoastrocytomas, contain cells from different types of glia. g , g y , yp Gliomas are further categorized according to their grade, which is determined by pathologic evaluation of the tumor. Low-grade gliomas [WHO grade II] are well-differentiated (not anaplastic); these are not benign but still portend a better prognosis for the patient. High-grade [WHO grade III-IV] gliomas are undifferentiated or anaplastic; these are malignant and carry a worse prognosis. 23

This pathology is widely known because of its occurrence in the central nervous system, but can appear in any location. An arteriovenous malformation is a vascular anomaly. It is a RASopathy. The Spetzler-Martin grading system developed at the Barrow Neurological Institute is utilized by neurosurgeons to determine operative versus nonoperative management when approaching these lesions.
