Ideally for recurrence, surgery is preferred if resectable. That's decided by the neuro surgeon . Radiation may be advised after surgery if needed or if unresectable.
However role of re irradiation depends on time since previous Radiation Treatment.
Next Steps
Kindly consult Neuro Surgeon and Radiation Oncologist.
