Астроцитомы низкой степени злокачественности (АНЗ) - это медленно растущие новообразования, с высокой степенью клеточной дифференцировки, диффузно инфильтрирующие прилежащее мозговое вещество. Данная патология имеет большое клиническое и социальное значение, так как эти опухоли встречаются наиболее часто среди внутричерепных новообразований, поражают людей молодого возраста и в то же время представляют собой наиболее доброкачественную форму среди внутримозговых опухолей, которые, как известно, крайне редко могут быть удалены радикально. Тактика, позволяющая сохранить высокое качество жизни таких пациентов с максимально благоприятным прогнозом на ближайшие годы, до сих пор обсуждаема. Значимость проблемы возрастает наряду с совершенствованием точности нейровизуальных методов диагностики, прежде всего компьютерной (КТ) и магнитно-резонансной (МРТ) томографий головного мозга. Использование дифференциального подхода к определению этапности и тактики лечения таких больных предусматривает возможность улучшения и качества, и продолжительности их жизни.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>астроцитома</kwd><kwd>степень злокачественности</kwd><kwd>опухоль глиальной ткани</kwd><kwd>мозговая опухоль</kwd><kwd>химиотерапия</kwd><kwd>облучение</kwd><kwd>диагностика</kwd><kwd>тактика лечения</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Арутюнов А.И.
