Stereotaxic Brachytherapy For Malignant Glioma Using A Relocatable Frame

Interstitial brachytherapy for recurrent gliomas normally necessitates the invasive application of a stereotactic frame by screw-fixation which must be kept on for several hours. The use of a relocatable stereotactic frame offers many advantages over conventional systems. We present our experience in 18 patients and verify that the frame used is accurate, comfortable, well tolerated and associated with no major disadvantages.
