Assessment of therapeutic outcome and role of reirradiation in patients with radiation-induced glioma.

RIG can occur beyond 20 years after successfully treating the primary disease using radiotherapy; thus, cancer survivors should be informed of the long-term risk of developing RIG and the need for timely neuroimaging evaluation. Reirradiation combined with chemotherapy appears to be feasible and has favorable outcomes. Determining the IDH1/2 mutational status is useful to establish RIG diagnosis when the primary tumor is glioma.
