Dr. Joseph Accurso answered

Specializes in Radiology

It is possible, but : Higher grade tumors are more aggressive and generally harder to control or cure. Please make sure to have a team of physicians working together to optimize a plan of treatment which may include surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. That will provide the best possible plan for fighting this tumor.
