Gamma Knife radiosurgery for central neurocytoma : a quantitative systematic review and metanalysis

Central neurocytomas (CN) are rare tumors within the central nervous system. Originating from the septum pellucidum and subependymal cells, they are typically found in the third and lateral ventricles. For this reason, they may lead to hydrocephalus and increased intracranial pressure. CNs are generally benign lesions that exhibit locally aggressive behavior and a high recurrence rate. Complete surgical resection is the preferred treatment; however, due to their anatomical location, this is often not feasible. Based on these findings, Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) has been introduced for managing both residual and recurrent tumors and as an initial therapy in selected cases. This study aimed to systematically review the available knowledge regarding GKRS for CN. A systematic investigation of the scientific literature was undertaken through an exhaustive search across prominent databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, by employing precise MeSH terms such as "Central neurocytoma," "Radiosurgery," "Gamma Knife," and "Stereotactic Radiosurgery." A comprehensive quantitative systematic review and meta-analysis were meticulously conducted, focusing on cases of CN treated with GKRS for a thorough evaluation of outcomes and efficacy. Seventeen articles, including 289 patients, met the inclusion criteria. Random effects meta-analysis estimates for disease control and local tumor control were 90% (95% CI 87-93%; I2 = 0%, p < 0.74) and 94% (95% CI 92-97%; I2 = 0%, p < 0.98), respectively. When considering only studies with at least 5 years of follow-up, progression-free survival was 89% (95% CI 85-94%; I2 = 0.03%, p < 0.74). The mean clinical control rate was 96%. This systematic review and meta-analysis confirmed the safety and efficacy of GKRS in managing CN.
