- W2247687654 abstract "20024 Background: Optic pathway gliomas (OPG) constitute 1–5% of childhood brain tumors, they can occur in patients with NF1. The aim of this study is to evaluate our patients with OPG through a 16 year period. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 22 patiens treated between Dec. 1990- Dec. 2006. Results: 12 girls and 10 boys (6 mo-19 yrs, median 5yrs) were diagnosed with OPG. 13 patients had NF1.Two had diencephalic syndrome. In 10 the tumor extended to the hypothalamus.Two had leptomeningeal disease, both died despite therapy.Median follow up was 56 months (6–147 mo). 3 patients had stable disease and were followed without treatment, 6 underwent surgery (4 total tumor resection, 2 ventriculoperitoneal shunt; 5 had no additional therapy). 2 patients (14 and 19 years old ) were treated with radiotherapy and 12 (6 mo-9 yrs) received chemotherapy. 3 patients, with stable disease, remained stable. 4 patients, who had total tumor resection, an one with VPS were followed more than 26 months. In two patients , treated with radiotherapy because of progressive disease, clinical response was attained and remained stable. 12 patients recieved chemotherapy, 11 had vincristine 1.5 mg/m 2 and carboplatinum 560 mg/m 2 in one day every 28 days. Of these 11 patients, 10 patients had clinical response/stable disease after chemotherapy, 1 died of progressive disease. Two patients had hypersensitivity to carboplatinum after 8 courses. There were no other major side effects of treatment. In a patient who had vincristine, CCNU,CTX and PCZ, 7 months after achievement of stable disease with chemotherapy, progressive disease occured, and died. Conclusion: OPG are rare childhood central nervous system tumors. The rarity ot these tumors and their variable course make assesment and standardization of treatment methods difficult. Conservative management can be suggested for asymptomatic or stable cases. Based on the primary location of the tumor and age of the patient; surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used as a single treatment modality or in combination. Treatment should be planned on an individual basis. In young children with progressive disease chemotherapy with vincristine, carboplatinum once a month seems to be effective and provides a good quality of life during treatment.
