​Brain Tumor - Children

​

Surgery is usually the first step in treating most brain tumors. In some cases, however, such as most brain stem gliomas and other tumors located deep inside the brain, it may be too dangerous to perform surgery. The objective of most brain tumor surgeries is to remove or reduce as much of the tumor's bulk as possible. By reducing the tumor's size, other therapies, particularly radiotherapy, can be more effective.
