SYSTEMIC STAGING OF SUPRATENTORIAL EXTRA-AXIAL BRAIN-TUMORS IN CHILDREN - CRANIOPHARYNGIOMAS, ATYPICAL TERATOMA AND TERATOID TUMORS OF THE SUPRASELLAR REGION (GERMINOMAS), AND INTRACRANIAL TERATOMAS CANCER James, H. E., Edwards, M. S. 1985; 56 (7): 1800-1803

Abstract

A staging system has been proposed for the following tumors: craniopharyngiomas, germinomas, and intracranial teratomas. Various aspects of the specific pathologic and growth characteristics of the tumor determines such categorization and subclassification of the tumors. A brief analysis of the clinical aspects in reference to classification is presented. The suggested systems will need to be tested in clinical studies to determine their validity.
