Abstract |
A case of a recurrent hemangiopericytoma of the falx which responded well to radiotherapy is reported. The patient was a 58-year-old woman who received a total of 6000 rads of local Linac irradiation over 6 weeks. One year after completing radiotherapy, a computerized tomography scan showed marked regression of the tumor.
