Papillary tumor of the pineal region (PTPR) is a rare neoplasm with only anecdotal data to guide the treatment. Results of treatment with surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy have been reported to have varying degrees of success. Here we report a patient with a PTPR, who underwent subtotal resection, gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery, and adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy.
During 9 years of clinical and radiographic follow-up, the patient has had regression of residual tumor and remains asymptomatic.
When gross total resection of a PTPR is not possible, treatment with gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery and temozolomide chemotherapy may provide long-term tumor control.
松果体区乳头状瘤（PTPR）是一种罕见肿瘤，仅有零星数据可用于指导治疗。据报道，手术、放射治疗和化疗的治疗结果有不同程度的成功。在此，我们报告一名患有PTPR的患者，其接受了次全切除、伽玛刀立体定向放射外科治疗和辅助替莫唑胺化疗。
在9年的临床和影像学随访中，该患者残留肿瘤消退，且仍无症状。
当无法对PTPR进行全切除时，伽玛刀立体定向放射外科治疗和替莫唑胺化疗可能提供长期的肿瘤控制。
