MRI report of my uncle says that there is evidence of approx. 6x4 cm alter signal intensity lesion in right fronto-parietal lobe. It is heterogeneously hyperintense in T2 WI, hyperintense with hypointense (cystic/necrotic) areas in FLAIR and heterogenously hypointense in T1 WI. Minimal enhancement is seen after gadolinium. Mild mass effect is seen with mild displacement of the falx cerebri Suggestive neoplastic etiology? Oligodendroglioma. Is it cancer or not. If it happened to be cancer what is the stage? Plz suggest the mode of treatment and the best place for treatment in Insia
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. Oligocene Chat Doctor. (WHO grade 2). There are other possibilities of diagnosis with that MR result (high grade gliomas, metastasis). The treatment is surgical followed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy after the BIOS response. The treatment needs to be done on a specialized Neurosurgical Center. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
