Abstract (english)
Astrocytoma is the second most common intramedullary tumor of predominantly low-grade malignancy in adult patients. Adult astrocytomas have better-quality prognosis compared with astrocytomas in children. Although a standardized surgical management protocol for spinal cord glioma is currently unavailable, surgery of low-grade astrocytoma should be aimed at gross total resection to preserve neurological function and to improve the outcome. Herein, we present a personal case series of four consecutive adult spinal cord astrocytoma patients who were operated on during the last few years. Tumor resection was performed in all patients utilizing microsurgical technique and intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring. We also provide a literature review of the treatment of intramedullary astrocytoma in adults and discuss contemporary surgical management and prognosis.
Abstract (croatian)
Astrocitom kralježničke moždine je tumor pretežito niskog stupnja malignosti koji je po učestalosti drugi intramedularni tumor u odraslih u kojih je njegova prognoza znatno povoljnija u usporedbi s prognozom u djece. Unatoč tomu što standardizirani protokol za kirurško liječenje gliomskih tumora kralježničke moždine zasad ne postoji, cilj ovakvog liječenja trebao bi biti usmjeren ka uklanjanju tumora u cijelosti kako bi se očuvala neurološka funkcionalnost i poboljšala uspješnost liječenja. U ovom radu dajemo prikaz osobne serije tijekom nekoliko posljednjih godina susljedno operiranih četvero odraslih bolesnika s astrocitomom kralježničke moždine u kojih je tumor mikrokirurški uklonjen uz pomoć intraoperacijskog neurofiziološkog praćenja. U radu također donosimo pregled literature o liječenju intramedularnih astrocitoma u odraslih, raspravljajući o suvremenom kirurškom liječenju ovakvih tumora i prognozi bolesti.
