Ukrain therapy of a recurrent astrocytoma of the optic nerve (case report).
An eight year old girl was twice operated (1989 and 1991) for a Grade I astrocytoma of the chiasma. Because of early recurrence and the fact that the tumour could only be extirpated subtotally Ukrain monotherapy was initiated.
