Optimal use of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) vs external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for treatment of residual/recurrent atypical meningioma is unclear.
To analyze features associated with progression after radiation therapy.
Fifty radiation-naive patients who received SRS or EBRT for residual and/or recurrent atypical meningioma were examined for predictors of progression using Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses.
Thirty-two patients (64%) received adjuvant radiation after subtotal resection, 12 patients (24%) received salvage radiation after progression following subtotal resection, and 6 patients (12%) received salvage radiation after recurrence following gross total resection. Twenty-one patients (42%) received SRS (median 18 Gy), and 7 (33%) had tumor progression. Twenty-nine patients (58%) received EBRT (median 54 Gy), and 13 (45%) had tumor progression. Whereas tumor volume (P = .53), SRS vs EBRT (P = .45), and adjuvant vs salvage (P = .34) were not associated with progression after radiation therapy, spontaneous necrosis (hazard ratio [HR] = 82.3, P < .001), embolization necrosis (HR = 15.6, P = .03), and brain invasion (HR = 3.8, P = .008) predicted progression in univariate and multivariate analyses. Tumors treated with SRS/EBRT had 2- and 5-year actuarial locoregional control rates of 91%/88% and 71%/69%, respectively. Tumors with spontaneous necrosis, embolization necrosis, and no necrosis had 2- and 5-year locoregional control rates of 76%, 92%, and 100% and 36%, 73%, and 100%, respectively (P < .001).
This study suggests that necrosis may be a negative predictor of radiation response regardless of radiation timing or modality.

立体定向放射外科(SRS)与外照射放疗(EBRT)在治疗残留/复发性非典型脑膜瘤时的最佳应用尚不清楚。
分析放疗后与疾病进展相关的特征。
对50例接受SRS或EBRT治疗残留和/或复发性非典型脑膜瘤的初治放疗患者,采用Cox回归和Kaplan-Meier分析来检测疾病进展的预测因素。
32例患者(64%)在次全切除术后接受辅助放疗,12例患者(24%)在次全切除术后病情进展后接受挽救性放疗,6例患者(12%)在全切术后复发后接受挽救性放疗。21例患者(42%)接受SRS(中位剂量18 Gy),其中7例(33%)出现肿瘤进展。29例患者(58%)接受EBRT(中位剂量54 Gy),其中13例(45%)出现肿瘤进展。放疗后,肿瘤体积(P = 0.53)、SRS与EBRT(P = 0.45)以及辅助放疗与挽救性放疗(P = 0.34)均与疾病进展无关,但在单因素和多因素分析中,自发坏死(风险比[HR]=82.3,P < 0.001)、栓塞后坏死(HR = 15.6,P = 0.03)和脑侵犯(HR = 3.8,P = 0.008)可预测疾病进展。接受SRS/EBRT治疗的肿瘤2年和5年局部区域控制率分别为91%/88%和71%/69%。有自发坏死、栓塞后坏死和无坏死的肿瘤2年和5年局部区域控制率分别为76%、92%和100%以及36%、73%和100%(P < 0.001)。
本研究提示,无论放疗时机或方式如何,坏死可能是放疗反应的负性预测因素。
