While pediatric orbital tumors are most often managed in tertiary care centers, clinicians
should be aware of the signs of intraocular and orbital neoplasms. In the pediatric …

Optic nerve gliomas are highly variable tumours with an unpredictable clinical course.
Consequently, the diagnosis and management of these tumours remains complex and a …

Optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSM) are rare tumors of the meninges that surround the
optic nerve as it enters the orbit. If left untreated, these benign tumors lead to progressive …

OBJECTIVE Because of their critical and central location, it is deemed necessary to
fractionate when considering irradiating optic pathway/hypothalamic gliomas. Stereotactic …

Optic nerve sheath meningioma (ONSM) is a rare orbital tumor that generally induces a slow
progressive visual loss in affected patients. Radiotherapy (RT) has currently become the first …

Optic pathway/hypothalamic gliomas represent approximately 2%–5% of brain tumors in
children. Total excision, subtotal excision, subtotal excision followed by irradiation, radiation …

Stereotactic radiosurgery using the Leksell Gamma Knife has proven to be a valuable
alternative to orbital enucleation or fractionated radiation therapy for primary tumors of the …

In the current report, the authors present a case of optic nerve glioma treated with
fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT). An 11-year-old girl was referred to our clinic …

Objectives: Little evidence exists regarding the management of orbital meningioma causing
vision loss in the setting of neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2). We review here our experience …

Background: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) method has been considered the first-line
treatment option to treat patients involved with pre-optic nerve tumors. However, studies …
