Brain tumour recurrence

2020-07-21 11:34:18
My brother was diagnosed with a brain tumour which was successfully removed in 2009. He was on continuous allopathy medications but still he gets seizures. Now it is diagnosed there is a regrowth in the tumour. Is surgery the only option for the tumour or there are alternate treatments. I have attached the report about the size and location of tumour.

The decision for further treatment of this tumor recurrence needs to be done after going through all the previous MRI reports and surgery details.. There are other methods to treat the tumor, but that decision can be made only after consulting with a neurosurgeon..
