Clinical characteristics of subsequent histologically confirmed meningiomas in long-term childhood cancer survivors: A Dutch LATER study

Meningiomas are the most frequent brain tumours occurring after pediatric cranial radiotherapy (CrRT). Data on course of disease, to inform clinical management of meningiomas, are sparse.

Zusammenfassung:Meningiomas are the most frequent brain tumours occurring after pediatric cranial radiotherapy (CrRT). Data on course of disease, to inform clinical management of meningiomas, are sparse. This study reports the clinical characteristics of histologically confirmed meningiomas in childhood cancer survivors (CCS) in the Netherlands. In total, 6015 CCS from the Dutch Long-Term Effects After Childhood Cancer (LATER) cohort were eligible, including 1551 with prior CrRT. These CCS were diagnosed with cancer age
