  • Title: Malignant astrocytoma following radiotherapy of a craniopharyngoima. Case report.
    Author: Sogg RL, Donaldson SS, Yorke CH.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1978 Apr; 48(4):622-7. PubMed ID: 632887.
    Abstract:
    A 9-year-old schoolgirl received 6007 rads to the suprasellar region for craniopharyngioma. Five years later, a malignant astrocytoma developed in the right temporal lobe. We cite clinical and experimental evidence to support our suspicion that the glioma may have been induced by radiation.
