Effective salvage of recurrent craniopharyngioma with fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Craniopharyngiomas can invade surrounding structures, including the optic chiasm and hypothalamus. In such cases, subtotal resection is often preferred to limit perioperative morbidity and mortality; however, subtotal resection is associated with high rates of recurrence. Recurrent craniopharyngioma is typically treated with another subtotal resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. We present a case of a patient found to have a large craniopharyngioma compressing the optic chiasm, hypothalamus and left cavernous sinus. She underwent surgical debulking but developed recurrence shortly thereafter. Subsequently, she underwent a second debulking surgery, followed by fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). Results show that she exhibited an impressive response to SRT with further tumor shrinkage, while remaining clinically well. This case demonstrates the efficacy of SRT in salvage of recurrent craniopharyngioma.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
