Overview

Patients with gliomatosis cerebri have many treatment options. The selection depends on the stage of the tumor. The options are surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these methods.

Medical Therapy

Radiation therapy

This is a cancer treatment to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing by using high-energy x-rays or other types of radiation.

Chemotherapy

The treatment is to use drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
