• The radiotherapy and chemotherapy are applied to prevent the relapse after the surgery.

For surgical treatment of brain cancer in children, minimally invasive methods are used in San Joan Hospital. Endoscopic and microsurgical operations are conducted on brain under control of neuronavigation. During a removal of malignant tumor, magnetic resonance map of little patient’s brain is applied. This map allows neurosurgeons detecting a localization of tumor and tracking moving of instruments. With neuronavigation it is possible to completely remove a brain tumor.
