That's tricky: That's hard news to hear. Treatments are entirely dependent on the location & type of tumor. They can be benign or cancerous & primary or metastases from another part of the body. Imaging is critical to assess the tumor. Open or needle biopsy will guide plan. He may need open or gamma knife surgery +/- chemotherapy. Seek neurosurgeon & oncologist. Go to hopkinsmedicine.org & check brain tumor ctr.
