Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy for Brain Tumors: A Prospective Multicenter Analysis of Patients From the LAANTERN Study

A prospective multicenter analysis from the LAANTERN registry evaluated outcomes of laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) in patients with brain tumors, providing real-world evidence on the safety and efficacy of this minimally invasive neurosurgical approach. The study, published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, aggregated data across multiple centers to characterize procedural outcomes, complications, and survival endpoints following LITT. These results help define the role of LITT as a treatment option for patients with brain tumors who may not be candidates for conventional open craniotomy.
