Extent of resection did not correlate with 10-year OS (74.2% biopsy only, 72.7% STR, 82.2% GTR, p > 0.05 all comparisons) or on Cox multivariate analysis. Chemotherapy was associated with higher OS (65.6% vs. 51.2%, p = 0.035) and a trend towards significance on multivariate assessment (p = 0.082). Sequencing of chemotherapy and CSI dose were not associated with OS (p > 0.05 for both). CONCLUSIONS Although causation cannot be implied, neither the extent of resection nor CSI dose associated with OS in adult medulloblastoma. Chemotherapy could have utility in higher-risk patients; concurrent administration may not be beneficial, especially given therapy-induced neuro-cognitive sequelae. Venous malformation (VM) in the posterior cranial fossa occasionally cause trigeminal neuralgia (TN), which were treated with microvascular decompression of its drainer, whereas it was effective only in the limited cases, and its pathological mechanism causing TN is controversial. A 72-year-old man had a 20-year history of typical but severe TN in his left face. Without radiographic evidence of vascular compression on the root entry zone (REZ) of the trigeminal nerve, he underwent stereotactic radiosurgery in previous hospital, resulting in only temporary improvement. On T1-wighted magnetic resonance image with enhancement, the left trigeminal nerve was focally enhanced, which was typical finding after high dose irradiation for TN. Simultaneously, it disclosed small "caput medusa" within the pontine tegmentum, indicated existence of VM in brachium pontis. A 3-dimensional computer graphics model created by fusion of magnetic resonance angiography, diffusion tensor tractography, and fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition elucidated VM was located in the trigeminal nucleus of brachium pontis, which will be very useful for understanding the anatomic correlation of VM and pontine trigeminal nucleus. Since there was no vasc
