Abstract:Intracranial germ cell tumor (iGCT) is a rare type of brain tumors which is prevalent among children and adolescents. Among iGCTs, non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCTs) presented with a poorer prognosis. Since treatment primarily involves chemotherapy and radiotherapy, it is crucial to differentiate treatment-related secondary tumors that may develop during follow-up from recurrences of iGCTs. However, there are few studies distinguishing between these two outcomes. Based on the criteria from SIOP trials… Show more
