Treatment of hindbrain tumor

Treatment of hindbrain tumor

The treatment of posterior brain tumors is an issue that all patients need to pay attention to. After all, if the occurrence of this disease is not treated in a timely manner, it will directly threaten life. Common treatments include basic living treatments and surgical treatments. In life, attention should be paid to controlling high intracranial pressure and using some corticosteroid hormone drugs.

1. Basic treatment principles

Comprehensive treatment with surgery as the main method, supplemented by symptomatic treatment according to the condition, such as controlling high intracranial pressure, applying corticosteroids and anti-epileptic drugs, correcting metabolic abnormalities and supportive treatment.

2. Surgery

(1) Surgical methods are classified into direct surgical resection of the tumor and palliative surgery (internal decompression, external decompression, and cerebrospinal fluid shunt).

(2) The principle of surgical treatment is to remove the tumor as much as possible while protecting the integrity of the surrounding brain tissue structure and function.

(3) Resection method: Surgical resection of benign intracranial tumors is almost the only effective treatment method. Malignant tumors should also be resected intensively. However, due to their invasive nature or their location in important functional areas and other areas that are difficult to reach during surgery, they can only be resected subtotally, partially, or biopsied.

3. Radiation therapy

(1) A comprehensive radiotherapy plan must be completed by a multidisciplinary collaboration including neurosurgery, neuroimaging, radiation oncology, and radiation physics.
