Seventy-nine children with histologically proven astrocytomas, 32 cerebral, 30 cerebellar, 9 thalamic, 6 optic nerve, and 2 in the 4th ventricular floor were reviewed retrospectively. Seventy-one per cent of the astrocytomas were well differentiated. Unlike adult astrocytomas, there was slight female predominance in our group. Cerebral astrocytomas were more frequent beyond nine years of age. The overall five-year survival rate of cerebral astrocytomas was 95% (19/20) for well-differentiated, and 19% (2/12) for poorly-differentiated tumors. In cerebellar astrocytomas the survival rates were 75% (18/24) and 33% (2/6) respectively.
对79例经组织学证实的星形细胞瘤患儿进行了回顾性研究,其中32例位于大脑,30例位于小脑,9例位于丘脑,6例位于视神经,2例位于第四脑室底部。71%的星形细胞瘤为高分化。与成人星形细胞瘤不同,我们的研究组中女性略占优势。大脑星形细胞瘤在9岁以后更为常见。高分化大脑星形细胞瘤的总体五年生存率为95%(19/20),低分化肿瘤为19%(2/12)。小脑星形细胞瘤的生存率分别为75%(18/24)和33%(2/6)。
