Summaries for Pilocytic Astrocytoma

About this section
NIH Rare Diseases : 54 Pilocytic astrocytoma is an often benign, slow-growing tumor of the brain or spinal cord. The tumor may be in the form of a cyst and usually does not spread to nearby tissues. Symptoms vary depending upon the size and location of the tumor. Most symptoms result from increased pressure on the brain and include headaches, nausea, vomiting, balance problems, and vision abnormalities. The underlying cause of a pilocytic astrocytoma is unknown. It most commonly occurs in children and young adults, and in people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), Li-Fraumeni syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis. This type of tumor can often be cured with surgery.

MalaCards based summary : Pilocytic Astrocytoma, also known as juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma, is related to pilocytic astrocytoma of cerebellum and juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma, and has symptoms including headache An important gene associated with Pilocytic Astrocytoma is KRAS (KRAS Proto-Oncogene, GTPase), and among its related pathways/superpathways are ERK Signaling and Cytokine Signaling in Immune system. The drugs Vincristine and Lomustine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, spinal cord and cerebellum, and related phenotypes are Decreased viability in esophageal squamous lineage and behavior/neurological
