Abstract
Twenty five patients with tumors of the brain stem were treated with radiotherapy between 1979 and 1987. Histological diagnosis could be obtained in 6 cases, and other 19 patients were diagnosed by neurologic findings and CT or MRI. Eighteen patients were treated by radical radiotherapy and 6 patients received both operation and radiotherapy, while 1 patient received chemotherapy after radiotherapy. Total dose ranged from 50 Gy to 55 Gy. By an clinical scoring scale at 2 months after radiotherapy, no complete response was obtained, but 16 cases achieved partial response, 2 cases were stable, and 4 cases were deteriorated. The overall survival rate at 3 years was
1979년부터 1987년까지 뇌간 종양 환자 25명이 방사선 치료를 받았다. 6예는 조직학적으로, 19예는 이학적 및 신경학적 진찰, CT 및 MRI등에 의하여 임상적으로 진단하였다. 18예는 근치적 목적의 방사선 치료를, 6예는 수술후 방사선 치료를, 1예는 방사선 치료 후 항암제 병용요법 등을 각각 받았다. 방사선 치료는 통상적 분할치료법에 의하여
