Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 7 year old son has a recurring ependymoma. The first tumor was at his brain stem and was removed with surgery and radiation. Sadly, it has returned 1 1/2 years later but in his spine. Tumors have been removed by surgery and we're waiting for a plan for radiation therapy. we have been told it will be cranialspinal radiation and there will most likely be serious side affects, most notably learning disorders. My son is a very intelligent boy and this is terrifying. Are there any alternative medicines that have any affect on ependymomas?
