Abstract:
We report the case of a 63-year-old man who developed an anaplastic oligoastrocytoma of the brain stem and midbrain 13 years after postoperative high-dose proton-photon radiation therapy for a recurrent low-grade chondrosarcoma of the skull base. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an anaplastic glioma after proton-photon irradiation.
