Astrocytomas are usually benign tumors with a largely good prognosis and slow growth. However, they can develop into aggressive malignant tumors even after years. Therefore, complete microsurgical removal is usually considered. Pilocytic astrocytoma of childhood represents a special benign form.

Headaches, neurological disorders or even seizures are among the most common symptoms leading to a diagnosis.

The best possible treatment for all tumor diseases is discussed and individually determined within the framework of an interdisciplinary tumor board. You are welcome to contact our clinic for consultation.
