A member asked:
What do you suggest if my neice is 18 months old and was diagnosed with grade 4 glioma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See an expert : High grade glioma is a malignant brain tumor seen in children and adults. There are no easy solutions for them. My advice is to see a national expert. If you are in Northern California as your profile suggests, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Center at UCSF is one of the largest pediatric neurooncology programs in the country. Clinical Trials may be an option to consider.
