Background And Purpose

Method

Between 1993 and 2013, 133 patients (68 female patients) with JFSs were surgically treated. Clinical charts were reviewed, and scheduled follow-up examinations were performed.

Conclusion

Quality of life and preservation of neurologic function are the goals of surgical treatment of JFSs. Favorable long-term surgical outcomes for JFSs can be achieved. Morbidity of cranial nerves IX and X is significant, and patients with nontotal resection or pathologic mitosis should be followed closely.

Main results

Between 1993 and 2013, 133 patients (68 female patients) with JFSs were surgically treated. Clinical charts were reviewed, and scheduled follow-up examinations were performed.
