--- abstract: 'Hemangiopericytoma is an uncommon vascular tumour. Complete surgical resection is treatment of choice. However, late local recurrences and distant extraneural metastases ranging from 12% to 57% are reported in literature after complete removal. Post operative radiotherapy is indicated in unresectable or incompletely excised tumour. We present a case of meningeal hemangiopericytoma in a 60 years old female patient treated with surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy. There is no evidence of disease at primary site and no sign or symptoms of metastatic disease in the patient after three years.' altloc: - http://www.ojhas.org/issue47/2013-3-12.html chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: - drparamjitkaur@rediffmail.com - ~ - ~ - ~ - ~ creators_name: - family: Kaur given: P honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Khurana given: A honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Chauhan given: AK honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Singh given: G honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Singh given: S honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 2013-11-15 date_type: published datestamp: 2015-02-21 14:33:57 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/96/99 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: 0 edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: - Kakkilaya BS editors_name: - family: Kakkilaya given: Srinivas honourific: Dr lineage: '' eprint_status: archive eprintid: 9699 fileinfo: /9699/1.hassmallThumbnailVersion/2013-3-12.pdf;/9699/1/2013-3-12.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: ~ item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: Brain tumor; Radiotherapy; Hemangiopericytoma lastmod: 2015-04-20 11:44:54 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: 3(12) pagerange: ~ pubdom: TRUE publication: Online Journal of Health and Allied Sciences publisher: Kakkilaya BS refereed: TRUE referencetext: "1.\tTsou H, Wang Y, Yang D, et al .Intra extracranial hemangiopericytoma: clinical manifestations, histopathological features, diagnosis, treatment and outcomes.
