Table 2.

HOD patient baseline data. The characteristics of ten patients with HOD development on MRI are shown. Age is defined as age at the time of the initial diagnosis of the brain tumor. Diagnosis is based on histopathology. The surgical approaches are listed as taken from the OR-reports. Latency resection to HOD is defined as time in between the first surgical operation to first radiological signs of HOD on MRI, months are rounded up for >2 weeks. HOD symptoms are defined as palatal tremor, Holmes-tremor and pendular nystagmus. Tumor size volumes were calculated using the ABC/2 estimation formula based on MRI-data [40]. Abbreviations: Pat. = Patient; mo. = months; CMS = cerebellar mutism syndrome; m = male; f = female; SCP = superior cerebellar peduncle.
