Proton beam therapy versus conformal photon radiation therapy for childhood craniopharyngioma: multi-institutional analysis of outcomes, cyst dynamics, and toxicity

BACKGROUND: We compared proton beam therapy (PBT) with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for pediatric craniopharyngioma in terms of disease control, cyst dynamics, and toxicity. METHODS: We reviewed records from 52 children treated with PBT (n=21) or IMRT (n=31) at two institutions in 19...
