Case report: Treatment of a rare primary cerebellum histiocytic sarcoma with surgery and radiotherapy

This case report provides an example of effective central nervous system control using resection and radiation therapy. A review of the literature confirms that surgery alone or combined concurrent or sequential treatment of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is often used; however, the best treatment plan remains unclear. Moreover, the prognosis is poor, with a median survival of six months. Thus, ongoing research aims to better understand the biology of histiocytic sarcomas and find more effective strategies.
