Abstract

Cysts and cystic-appearing intracranial lesions are common findings with routine cerebral imaging examination. These lesions often represent a challenge in diagnosis. Intracranial cystic lesions have wide pathologic and imaging spectra, of which some require an aggressive and tailored treatment, whereas many others remain asymptomatic and do not require follow-up or intervention. Intracranial cysts can be divided in non-neoplastic lesions that are often of developmental origin but comprise as well infectious cysts and neoplastic lesions that include benign cysts associated with low-grade tumors and cysts as a component of higher grade neoplasms. Reviewed are the pathology, origin, radiologic appearance, differential diagnosis, and therapeutic aspects of intracranial cystic lesions.

The authors propose an integrative genomics approach to a cohort of 103 medulloblastomas patients to classify these tumors in 4 subgroups characterized by distinct demographics, clinical presentation, transcriptional profiles, genetic abnormalities, and clinical outcome. They showed that MB can be reliably assigned to subgroups through immunochemistry, thereby making MB subclassification widely available. These categories should be taken into account when designing a therapeutic trial in MB.PubMedCrossRef

J Clin Oncol. 2011;29:1400. Since MB are heterogeneous and include relatively good-prognosis tumors, the authors underline the need to integrate in further clinical trial a practical stratification that permits accurate identification of risk and prognosis in order to be able to individualize adjuvant treatment and, thus, to minimize long-term adverse events in a subgroup of survivors. The authors could find 3 risk categories in childhood MB characterized by different molecular biomarker and clinical outcome.PubMedCentralPubMedCrossRef

J Clin Oncol. 2010;28(18):3054–60. Since adult MB is distinct from pediatric MB in terms of genomic aberrations and their impact on clinical outcomes, it appears that adult MBs require age-specific risk stratification models. The authors propose a molecular staging system involving 3 distinct risk groups based on DNA copy number, status of 10q, and 17q in adult patients.
