AIM: To retrospectively analyse the long-term results of hypofractionated stereotactic radiation therapy (HSRT) applied in five fractions for vestibular schwannomas.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred and thirty-four patients with vestibular schwannomas underwent medical treatment of HSRT. The median follow-up time interval was 54 months (range 6-121 months). All patients had a prescribed dose of 22 Gy in five fractions to D90. Restaging was carried out by thin-slice contrast-enhanced T1 magnetic resonance imaging. Progression was defined as 2 mm post-treatment tumour enlargement. Progression or death for any reason was counted as an event in progression-free survival rates. Acute toxicity was defined as adverse events occurring within 3 months of HSRT; long-term toxicity was defined as such events occurring after 3 months.
RESULTS: In 74/128 patients who had >6 months of follow-up (54%), the HSRT resulted in a partial or a complete response. The mean time interval for response in 50% of these was 4 years, whereas in 49 patients (38%) vestibular schwannomas failed to show any response, resulting in stable disease. Five of 128 patients (4%) showed marked progressive vestibular schwannomas after treatment in the first 3 years; two of them received conventionally fractionated radiation therapy. Local control at 3, 5 and 7 years was 96%, 95% and 94%, respectively. Seven were lost to follow-up. The median planning target volume was 2.1 ml (range 0.78-8.66). The 3- and 5-year progression-free survival rates were 95% and 94%, respectively. Seven patients reported a marked deterioration in hearing ability. Post-radiation therapy magnetic resonance imaging showed variability in oedema collection, but no patient suffered from radio-necrosis. Grade 2 temporary facial nerve disorders were observed in 10 patients (8%) 3-6 months after HSRT.
CONCLUSION: Delivering HSRT in five fractions for vestibular schwannoma appears safe and efficient, combining both efficiency and short treatment time while optimising neurological function preservation.
