BACKGROUND: Astroblastoma (AB) is a rare tumor with significant dilemma regarding diagnostic criteria, behavior, and optimum treatment.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We searched PubMed, Google Search, and Cochrane Library for eligible studies with the following search words: astroblastoma, high-grade astroblastoma, and anaplastic astroblastoma till July 1, 2016, published in English language and collected data regarding age, sex, site of disease, pathological grade, treatment received, and survival.
RESULTS: Data of 152 patients were retrieved from 63 publications. Median age was 16 years (range 0-71). Females were affected twice more frequently than male (70.3 vs. 29.7%). Tumors were most commonly located in the frontal (39%) followed by parietal lobe (26.7%). Fifty-two and 25% of the patients had headache and seizure at presentation, 76.3% of the patients underwent a gross total resection, 41 out of 89 had a high-grade tumor, and 56 patients received adjuvant radiation with a median dose of 54 Gy (range 20-72). Adjuvant chemotherapy was used in 23 patients. Temozolomide was the most common drug used in 30% of the patients. A combination of cisplatin, etoposide with vincristine, or ifosfamide was used in 17%. Median follow-up duration was 37 months (range 1-238). Median progression-free survival and OS were 36 and 184 months, respectively. Patients with a higher-grade tumor had significantly worse OS with HR 5.260 and p = 0.001. Forty patients experienced local progression. Sixty-five percent patients underwent surgery while 50% underwent radiation as salvage.
CONCLUSION: AB has two distinct grades with higher-grade tumors having significantly poor survival. Maximal safe surgery followed by adjuvant radiation and temozolomide should be advocated for these tumors.
