RESUMEN
The tumors of central nervous system refer to a group of benign and malignant diseases originating from tissues or structures within the central nervous system. Common tumors of central nervous system are sporadic, but a few have familial onset. Compared with sporadic brain tumors, the clinical symptoms, diagnostic ideas and follow-up review plans of familial brain tumors are more complicated. The multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment (MDT) mode usually refers to a treatment mode in which a case involving multiple organs and systems is discussed, and the best treatment plan is formulated for the patient based on the comprehensive opinions of various disciplines. Because familial brain tumors often involve multiple organs, multiple disciplines and multiple systems, and their low incidence leads to less clinical experience for neurosurgeons, the MDT model is more conducive to efficient diagnosis, treatment and management of familial brain tumors. This review elaborates on the neurosurgeon-led MDT model, and introduces the latest research on the epidemiology, genetic characteristics, clinical manifestations, diagnostic ideas and multidisciplinary management of familial brain tumors.
