Forty-two patients attended follow up. The mean patient age was 37.6 years (range 7\u201360 years). The lesions were located in the frontal lobe in 12 cases, deep in the parietal lobe in five, in the basal ganglia in five, in the temporal in three, in the cerebellum in three, in the pons\/midbrain in six, and in multiple locations in eight cases. The presenting symptoms were seizure in 12, hemorrhage in 11, and other in 19. The maximum dose was 26.78 Gy, and the mean margin dose was 14.55 Gy.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\">The mean follow-up period after radiosurgery was 29.6 months (range 5\u201393 months). The tumor decreased in size in 29 cases, was unchanged in 12, and increased in size in one. In the seizure group, seizures were controlled without anticonvulsant medication in nine cases (81.8%) after 31.3 months (range 12\u201380 months). After 93 months, one patient developed a cyst, which was resected. Rebleeding occurred in one case (2.3%). On T<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>-weighted imaging changes were seen in 11 cases (26.2%), in three (7.1%) of which neurological deterioration was correlated with imaging changes. In other cases these deficits were temporary.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\"><jats:italic>Conclusions.<\/jats:italic> The authors found that GKS was an effective treatment modality for cavernous hemangiomas, especially for those located within the brainstem, basal ganglia, or deep portions of the brain. It can reduce seizure frequency significantly although this takes time. In the group receiving a marginal dose below 15 Gy the patients fared better than when the dose exceeded 15 Gy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.2005.102.s_supplement.0102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,13]],"date-time":"2009-05-13T18:11:12Z","timestamp":1242238272000},"page":"102-106","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Gamma knife surgery for intracranial cavernous hemangioma"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"102","author":[{"given":"Moo Seong","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Se Young","family":"Pyo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Young Gyun","family":"Jeong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sun Il","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yong Tae","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jae Hong","family":"Sim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006123-199806000-00013"},{"key":"b2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"455","DOI":"10.1148\/radiology.169.2.3174993","volume":"169","author":"Atlas SW","year":"1988","journal-title":"Radiology"},{"key":"b3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01418515"},{"key":"b4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006123-199808000-00011"},{"key":"b5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"379","DOI":"10.1177\/028418518602700402","volume":"27","author":"Ericson K","year":"1986","journal-title":"Acta Radiologica Diagnosis"},{"key":"b6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00271020"},{"key":"b7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01773116"},{"key":"b8","first-page":"337","volume-title":"Epilepsy Surgery.","author":"Haglund MM","year":"1993"},{"key":"b9","first-page":"13","volume-title":"Cavernous Hemangiomas.","author":"Hsu FPK","year":"1993"},{"key":"b10","first-page":"88","volume-title":"Cavernous Hemangiomas.","author":"Huhn SL","year":"1993"},{"key":"b11","first-page":"1","volume-title":"Cavernous Hemangiomas.","author":"Johnson PC","year":"1993"},{"key":"b12","first-page":"291","volume-title":"Application of Radiosurgery.","author":"Kida Y","year":"1999"},{"key":"b13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00701-002-0983-9"},{"key":"b14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1995.83.5.0825"},{"key":"b15","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"69","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00341423","volume":"9","author":"Lillequist B","year":"1975","journal-title":"Neuroradiology"},{"key":"b16","first-page":"1465","volume-title":"Neurosurgery.","volume":"2","author":"Rengachary SS","year":"1985"},{"key":"b17","first-page":"34","volume-title":"Cavernous Hemangiomas.","author":"Robinson JR","year":"1993"},{"key":"b18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1991.75.5.0709"},{"key":"b19","first-page":"945","volume":"4","author":"Savoiardo M","year":"1983","journal-title":"ANJR"},{"key":"b20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1992.76.1.0038"},{"key":"b21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1991.75.1.0032"}],"container-title":["Journal of Neurosurgery"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/view\/journals\/j-neurosurg\/102\/11806\/article-p102.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/thejns.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.3171\/jns.2005.102.s_supplement.0102","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,12]],"date-time":"2018-10-12T15:57:42Z","timestamp":1539359862000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/thejns.org\/doi\/10.3171\/sup.2005.102.s_supplement.0102"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005,1]]},"references-count":21,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3171\/jns.2005.102.s_supplement.0102","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-3085"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-3085","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005,1]]}}}
