DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noaa222.780
Abstract: Abstract INTRODUCTION Postoperative radiotherapy is commonly given for WHO Grade 2–3 intracranial ependymoma. Clinicians generally aim to begin radiotherapy ≤5 weeks following surgery, but the optimal timing remains uncertain. METHODS The National Cancer Database was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/nop/npz070
Abstract: Background Adult intracranial ependymoma is rare, and the role for adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) is not well defined. Methods We used the National Cancer Database (NCDB) to select adults (age ≥ 22 years) with grade 2… read more here.
