ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this work is to summarize the elements of the "Cancer Plan" applicable to neurosurgical practice, and to give the results of a national inquiry concerning the daily practice of Neuro-Oncology from the neurosurgical point of view.METHOD:
The Neuro-Oncology Group of the French Society of Neurosurgery has submitted a questionnaire to every department of Neurosurgery in France.RESULTS:
The response rate of the public centers was 96.5%. Moreover, responses were available from 7 private centers. The results are detailed in the text.CONCLUSION:
This national survey highlights the interest and implication of French neurosurgeons in the field of Neuro-Oncology. But also, to be in accordance with the guidelines for good clinical practice, the importance of developing official neuro-oncological networks in order to offer the best access to clinical and fundamental data and hence optimise patient's care. The publication of the "Cancer Plan", the creation of a National Neuro-Oncology Group, and the results of this survey (actual multidisciplinary approach, better information and transparency, individualized care of the patients), are in the line with updating our daily practice, even though discrepancies remain among centers. French neurosurgeons must continue along the same path, but at the same time there is a need for additional help to definitely reach a truly, and homogeneous, optimized care of neuro-oncological patients.
