Radiosurgery for vestibular schwannomas: preliminary results of the Adelaide experience.

摘要

We present the preliminary results of our experience with Linear Accelerator (LINAC) radiosurgery for unilateral vestibular schwannomas. The treatment outcomes of 42 patients with a minimum follow-up of 12 months are reported. An excellent rate of tumour control was achieved with a relatively low complication rate. The current results compare favourably with other reported studies in the literature.
