Long‐term outcome of 4,040 children diagnosed with pediatric low‐grade gliomas: An analysis of the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database

Abstract

PLGGs are associated with an excellent long-term survival, with a low likelihood of PLGG related death in adult survivors. Treatment strategies for pediatric tumors should therefore aim for disease control during childhood and adolescence with an emphasis on minimizing long-term treatment induced toxicities.
