A member asked:
Should i be concerned if my mom just found out that she has a tumor in her head by the sinus area. is that in the brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: There is insufficient information to be more definitive. Tumors in the sinus area can extend into the skull and involve the brain. The treating doctor and radiologist should be able to provide more specific information.
