Effective management of brainstem tumors: a study of 22 patient experiences
Surgery enables histologic diagnosis, relieves mass effect, and improves symptoms in brainstem tumors. While gross total resection is ideal, it should not be insisted on in infiltrative tumors; partial or subtotal resection may provide long-term benefit in focal and exophytic lesions. Careful neuromonitoring and anatomical planning are essential to minimize morbidity.
