Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy is a good treatment option for small-, medium- and large-sized tumours with 5-year local tumour control of 92.2%. After 5 years, 22.0% of the patients had a good vision. Independently of tumour location, the visual acuity decreased significantly after treatment. Overall, the 5-year DFS was 77.0%.
