Supratentorial brain tumors present with neurological deficits and epilepsy. Current treatments like surgery and radiotherapy have limitations due to toxicity and efficacy, leading to neuropsychic side effects.

Area of Science:

  • Neuro-oncology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Radiation Oncology

Context:

  • Supratentorial brain tumors exhibit diverse histology.
  • Clinical manifestations primarily include neurological deficits, focal epilepsy, and symptoms of increased intracranial pressure.

Purpose:

  • To review the clinical features, treatment modalities, and challenges associated with supratentorial brain tumors.

Summary:

  • Treatment primarily involves surgery and radiotherapy, with chemotherapy showing limited efficacy.
  • Limitations in neurosurgery and radiotherapy toxicity (precluding high dosages) contribute to treatment failures.
  • While some patients achieve good vital outcomes, neuropsychic sequelae remain a significant concern.

Impact:
