Adjunctive gamma knife radiosurgery is a valuable option for intracavernous residual tumor.

Mechanical precision is superior for the gamma knife as compared with the linac.

Lung metastases developed postoperatively in one case and were treated by gamma knife radiotherapy.

Sixty-nine patients required hormone replacement therapy for one or more deficits before gamma knife treatment.

The authors report a case of successful treatment of recurred JNA with gamma knife surgery (GKS).

Objective: The objective was to perform an analysis of long-term hormonal effects and tolerance of gamma knife radiosurgery.

Twenty-three percent previously uncontrolled on somatostatin agonists fulfilled the same criteria after gamma knife while maintained on medical treatment.

Stereotactic radiosurgery such as that using a gamma knife is very useful for small lesions located in eloquent areas.

Subtotal removal justified additional surgery in one case, gamma knife radiosurgery in two cases, and fractionated irradiation in four cases.

Our objective was to assess proton chemical shift imaging for potential clinical application in monitoring response to gamma knife radiosurgery.

Conclusions: The automated planning system consistently provides a high-quality treatment plan while reducing the time required for gamma knife treatment planning.

Conclusion: Daily FF GKRS by gamma knife ICON™ revealed satisfactory tumor control rate and low morbidity, despite the short follow-upperiod.

However, the small tumor in the right occipital lobe was not cured by gamma knife surgery, and eventually required second operation.

On the other hand, equally excellent clinical results are obtained for small lesions with photon beams-thegamma knife and the linac.
