The treatment generally depends on the individual’s age, general health, and the size and location of the tumor.\r\n\r\nThere are several questions surrounding brain cancer treatment. The nature of the treatment, its effects, and the long-term outcomes are some of them. Doctors are best equipped to handle these questions.\r\n\r\nOverview of brain cancer treatment\r\n\r\nBrain cancer treatment is generally complex. Some treatment plans will require multiple doctors.\r\n\r\n1. The medical team usually comprises neurosurgeons, oncologists, radiation oncologists, and a general practitioner. Individuals may also want to include a dietitian, social worker, and physiotherapists.\r\n\r\n2. The nature of the treatment will depend on the location, size, and type of the tumor. Existing medical conditions and age are other factors that need considerations when deciding the nature of the treatment.\r\n\r\nBrain Cancer Surgery\r\n\r\nMost individuals who have a brain tumor are required to undergo surgery.\r\n

The nature of the tumor and method of removal are also determined at the time of surgery. Surgeons will most probably take a sample of the tumor that needs to be removed.\r\n\r\n2. When it comes to benign tumors, most symptoms vanish with the removal of the tumor.\r\n\r\n3. A modern method for removal of tumors can be performed without a knife and is called stereotactic surgery. The tumor is removed without opening the skull. MRI and CT scans are used to determine the exact location of the tumor within the brain. Radiation beams are focused on the tumor from different directions. Radiation helps destroy the tumor. This method is also known as the ‘gamma knife’.\r\n\r\n4. Knifeless surgeries have fewer complications. The recovery time, too, is much shorter.\r\n\r\nBefore surgery, individuals may have to undergo several treatment plans.\r\n\r\n1. Administration of dexamethasone helps reduce swelling. It is also a steroid drug.\r\n\r\n2. Treatment with anticonvulsant drugs, such as carbamazepine, relieves seizures. It also prevents its formation.\r\n\r\n3. Excessive cerebrospinal fluid around the brain can be drained away by a thick plastic tube known as a shunt. One end of the shunt is fixed in the cavity where the fluid gathers. The other end is threaded under the skin to another body part. The fluid drains into a site from where it can be easily eliminated.\r\n\r\nBrain Cancer Radiation Therapy\r\n\r\nRadiation therapy, also known as radiotherapy, involves the usage of high-energy rays to destroy cells of the tumor. This prevents tumors from growing and multiplying.\r\n\r\n

Individuals who cannot undergo surgery are prescribed radiation therapy. In some cases, it may be used after surgery to destroy tumor cells.\r\n\r\n2. Radiation therapy is local in nature, which means that only targeted cells are affected. Other brain and body cells are not affected.\r\n\r\nPalliative treatments are designed to elevate the comfort levels of the patient. It also helps ease the pain.
