TL;DR: Results of this study suggest that the primary trade-offs associated with SRS without WBRT, including a shorter TTCP without a decrease in overall survival, are similar to those observed in settings in which SRS is already established.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study provides additional evidence that SRS has become an option for patients with brainstem metastases, with an excellent benefit-to-risk ratio in the hands of experienced clinicians, and increases the risk of severe toxicity in brain stem metastasis patients undergoing SRS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma knife radiosurgery for dural arteriovenous fistulas.
TL;DR: Gamma Knife radiosurgery is an effective adjunct therapy for dAVFs with persistence of flow after open neurosurgical resection or endovascular treatment while still maintaining a role in nonaggressive d AVFs not amenable to either surgery or embolization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Acromegaly: An International Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study.

TL;DR: SRS is a definitive treatment option for patients with persistent or recurrent acromegaly after surgical resection and there appears to be a statistical association between the cessation of IGF-1 lowering medications prior to SRS and durable remission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic significance of corticotroph staining in radiosurgery for non-functioning pituitary adenomas: a multicenter study.
Or Cohen-Inbar,Zhiyuan Xu,Cheng-Chia Lee,Cheng-Chia Lee,Chin-Chun Wu,Tomas Chytka,Danilo Silva,Mayur Sharma,Hesham Radwan,Inga S. Grills,Brandon Nguyen,Zaid A. Siddiqui,David Mathieu,Christian Iorio-Morin,Amparo Wolf,Christopher P. Cifarelli,Daniel T Cifarelli,L. Dade Lunsford,Douglas Kondziolka,Jason P. Sheehan +19 more
TL;DR: The safety and effectiveness of Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) in patients with SCA compared with other non-SCA NFA’s is investigated and silent corticotroph staining represents an independent factor for adenoma progression and hypopituitarism after SRS.
