OBJECTIVE: Pituitary adenomas comprise about 3% of all intracranial tumors in pediatric patients. This study examines the role of stereotactic radiosurgery in the management of pediatric acromegaly or patients with Cushing disease (CD).
METHODS: From an international consortium, we retrospectively collected treatment and outcome data on pediatric adrenocorticotrophic hormone and growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas treated with Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS). There were a total of 36 patients including 24 with CD and 12 with acromegaly. The data were analyzed to assess outcomes including tumor control, endocrine remission, and adverse effects. Statistical analysis was performed to determine correlation between clinical/treatment parameters and outcomes.
RESULTS: At the last follow-up after GKRS, endocrine remission rates for CD and acromegaly were 80% and 42%, respectively. Tumor control was achieved in 87.5% of patients with CD and in 42% of patients with acromegaly. New pituitary hormone deficiency occurred in 7 of the 36 patients at a median time of 18 months after GKRS (range, 12-81 months). The predictive factors for endocrine remission were age <15 years (P = 0.015) and margin dose (P = 0.042). The median endocrine follow-up was 63.7 months (range, 7-246 months).
CONCLUSIONS: GKRS affords reasonable rates of endocrine remission and tumor control in most pediatric patients with functioning adenomas. The most common post-GKRS complication was hypopituitarism, although this occurred in only a few patients. Given the larger at-risk period for pediatric patients, further study is required to evaluate for delayed recurrences and hypopituitarism.
