Data on the outcomes of CyberKnife-based hypofractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (hSRS) for intracranial and extracranial nonvestibular schwannomas (nVSs) are not sufficient.Patients who underwent hSRS for nVSs between 2010 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed.A total of 39 patients with 39 nVSs were identified. The mean age was 53 (±18) years, and 20 patients (51%) were women. Twenty-five patients (64%) had previous surgeries. Seventeen patients (44%) had nVSs extending outside the cranium. The mean prescribed dose covering 95% of the planning target volume was 22 Gy (±3.7 Gy), the mean fractionation was 4 (±2), and the mean target volume was 13 cmWe summarized the treatment outcomes of hSRS for nVSs. Although all patients achieved radiological tumor control, the risk of either transient or permanent ARE was high. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor patients for clinical deterioration due to AREs. |
