Diagnosis
Recurrent tumor of the left frontal lobe. Embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes (ETMR, WHO Grade IV). Symptomatic epilepsy. Status post-microsurgical resection of the left fronto-operculum.
Patient:
Child, 3 years old, Kyrgyzstan
Physician:
Prof. Dr. med. Martin Scholz, Head of Neurosurgery Department, Sana Hospital Duisburg
Expert Opinion by Prof. Martin Scholz:
The provided imaging demonstrates a new mass lesion on the left side, extending from the site of the primary tumor resection and exerting significant mass effect on adjacent brain structures.
We can perform a surgical resection of the tumor; however, given its nature, the procedure must be carried out as soon as possible. Following surgery, targeted adjuvant chemotherapy will be required, which can be safely administered at a medical center in your home country.
Preliminary Cost Estimate: €29,000
