A person goes to the hospital for headaches, blurred vision or hearing loss, etc., and is told by the hospital doctors that he has an intracranial tumor that must be treated. In the face of the diagnosis given by the doctor, the first thing that comes to the mind of the patient and his family is: will this disease kill him, and the answer is yes. The answer is yes. Intracranial tumors, whether benign or malignant, if left to grow naturally without medical intervention, the end result is the same: death due to increased intracranial pressure and brain herniation. However, after the doctor gives you some medical interventions, such as the need for surgical removal of the tumor, how do the patient and his family think? Objectively speaking, it is hoped that through the treatment, whether surgical or non-surgical, the tumor can be removed, prolonging the life span, as if they did not have the disease. In fact, this is impossible. There are very few intracranial tumors, especially benign ones. There are very few intracranial tumors, especially benign tumors, which can be completely and cleanly removed through surgery, so that some patients can get this result, while most of the tumors, because of the complexity of intracranial structures, tumors invading important structures in the brain, or malignant tumors, resulting in the impossibility of completely removing them cleanly through surgery, and the possibility of recurrence after surgery, and the time of recurrence is very difficult to be determined by the doctors, so that a second and a third surgery is very likely, and patients and their family members must be prepared for this. and their families must be prepared for this. Although your expectation is understandable and at the same time consistent with the doctor’s goal, due to the special and complexity of the cranial brain structure, it is difficult to realize the goal you expect. Prolongation of life is is the basic desired goal of intracranial tumors, the ideal is to return to a normal life expectancy status, but a few, and I hope that you can understand and appreciate this feature.
