Abstract: Ependymoma is a relatively rare glial tumor arising from the ependymal lining of the central nervous system. Multiple factors have been shown to influence the prognosis individually, in our study, we tried to analyze the outcome of patients with intracranial Grade II/III ependymoma who were treated with post-operative radiation therapy at our institute with respect to various risk factors including histological grade & the extent of surgical resection.
