Pediatric CNS Tumors
Pediatric CNS Tumors is a detailed review of childhood brain tumors that offers a biologically based perspective on their management. For each tumor type, epidemiology, pathological features, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the provision of treatment algorithms that reflect current best practice, and controversies and therapeutic agents under development are also addressed. The closing chapters consider many of the diagnostic and treatment modalities common to all tumors, with special attention to experimental and emerging techniques. This third edition of the book has been thoroughly revised and updated to take into account the latest advances in knowledge and treatment.
Bench to Bedside: Translating Pre-clinical Research Into Clinical Trials for Childhood Brain Tumors
umors arising in the brain are the most common solid cancers in children. They are the major cause of childhood cancer deaths. Indeed, more children die from brain tumors than any other disease. Despite improvement in cure rates towards the end of the 20th century, survival statistics have remained unchanged over the past two decades and remain at a level well below that of other childhood cancers, such as leukemia. Also, survivors have a high risk of significant permanent adverse side effects that require a lifetime of clinical management, significantly impacting health systems and quality of life for patients. The lack of advancements in childhood brain tumor treatment was due to deficienc...

Glioblastoma Multiforme
Treatment of malignant glioma remains a major challenge for neurosurgeons, neurologists, medical oncologists, and radiation oncologists caring for patients with these tumors. Glioblastoma multiforme, the most common type of brain tumor, is also the most deadly -- only five percent of patients or fewer will be alive at five years after diagnosis. This comprehensive new reference is edited by a renowned team consisting of a neurosurgeon, medical oncologist, oncologic surgeon, and radiation oncologist. The book provides basic researchers and clinicians with a contemporary review of the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, and also imparts to experienced investigators outside of the field sufficient background to apply their skills to the treatment of this deadly disease. Expert malignant glioma researchers and clinicians provide state-of-the-art chapters on important topics such as molecular genetic classification of glioblastoma, surgical management, stem cell therapy, chemotherapy, angiogenesis, and more.
