Overview
Complication
Common complications associated with ependymomas are:
Prognosis
Unfavorable factors affecting outcome include the following:[1]
- Gain of chromosome 1q25 is present in approximately 20% of pediatric intracranial ependymoma cases and has been reported as a negative prognostic factor by multiple research groups.[2][3]
- Gene expression profile.[4]
- Other factors that have been reported to be associated with poor prognosis for pediatric ependymoma include expression of the enzymatic subunit of telomerase (hTERT) and expression of the neural stem cell marker Nestin.[5]
- Tumor location. Cranial variants of ependymoma have a less favorable outcome than primary spinal cord ependymomas.[19,20] Location within the spinal cord may also affect outcome, with tumors in the lower portion of the spinal cord having a worse prognosis.[6]
- Younger age at diagnosis.[7]
- Anaplastic histology.[7][8]
- Subtotal resection.[7]
- Lower doses of radiation.[9]
- Immunohistochemical testing has identified increased expression of markers of proliferation (e.g., Ki-67 and MIB-1)[10][11] and increased expression of EZH2, a polycomb complex protein involved in epigenetic regulation of gene expression, as prognostic factors for greater risk of treatment failure.[12]
