Abstract
Introduction: The management of a patient with an ependymoma is controversial. Although the necessity for a multi-disciplined approach is accepted, the exact roles for all disciplines are poorly defined.
Review: This review article examines the current status of histopathological and cytogenetic diagnosis, surgical, chemotherapeutic and radiotherapeutic treatment and future directions.
