Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma

Leonid chose the Ikhilov multidisciplinary medical center for the treatment of his son’s medulloblastoma. At the time of recording the video recall, 4 years have passed since the end of the treatment. Now father and son periodically come to Israel for preventive examinations.

Diagnosis: medulloblastoma of the brain

My son and I have already operated on medulloblastoma twice in Israel. And both times successfully. I thank God every time that he helped me make the right choice, because we probably wouldn’t have had a second try.

The first operation was in the Ikhilov hospital in 2012. At that time, our doctor was Professor Shlomi Kostiantini from the Department of Neurosurgery. He managed to remove the tumor so as not to affect the important nerve centers around it. Now our doctors are surprised that my son does not have a neurological defect, which is often formed after such operations in our homeland.

In 2018, a second operation was performed. We were warned from the first day back in Ikhilov that the probability of relapse is very high. But we lived without problems for 6 years, which is a very decent time for patients with medulloblastomas. Instead, we were examined and operated on by Professor Jean Sustiel from the Galilee Medical Center.

Now, when I watch how my son grows and develops, I always feel gratitude to Israeli specialists for their work, for the support they provide to patients and their relatives, for their sincerity and desire to help.

Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma

I was 40 when I was first diagnosed with medulloblastoma. Over the next 3 years, I experienced hydrocephalus, a bypass for hydrocephalus, and treatment for an infection after performing a brain tumor biopsy. The tumor was already inoperable at the time of detection, but I really wanted to live, so I started to learn what foreign oncologists could offer.

So far I have had 2 months of radiotherapy to stop the tumor from spreading to my spinal cord and 4 rounds of chemotherapy. I was supposed to go through 6 cycles in total, but had to stop the treatment due to neurological complications. Now I have periodic check-ups to monitor the condition of the tumor. The result is remission. I am very happy about it.

Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma

I was diagnosed with medulloblastoma at the age of 31. My doctor says it’s not typical for adults. Now I am being treated in Ichilov. They have already performed an operation during which most of the tumor was removed, a one-month course of radiation therapy and chemotherapy drugs were prescribed. The results of the treatment are encouraging and give me the opportunity to hope for the best.

Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma

Currently, I am with my son in Israel for treatment. He was diagnosed with medulloblastoma just 2 weeks ago, but it feels like an eternity between that terrible day and today. Especially since there were many events during these 2 weeks: we took my son to the clinic, examined him in 2 days, and on the third day had an operation.

The tumor was located in the cerebellum and it was already 2 cm in size. Our doctor said that during the operation it was possible to remove 99.9% of the tumor and that the operation went as well as possible. There is no tumor node on MRI. Rehabilitation has now begun, as the left half of the body has become somewhat clumsy. But physiotherapy should remove this complication. At home, we would have spent several months on all these examinations and treatments. And the result would hardly be so good.

How to suspect brain medulloblastoma?

Медуллобластома головного мозку, симптоми

A cancerous node can grow asymptomatically for a long time. Diagnosis is often complicated by the early age of the patients, when at the age of 3-5 the child cannot clearly formulate the changes in well-being that bother him. In a third of cases, metastasis is observed already at the stage of diagnosis.

You can suspect the growth of medulloblastoma by the following symptoms:

  • Headache, dizziness.
  • Vomiting, nausea that worsens in the morning.
  • A decrease in the level of activity, rapid fatigue.
  • Clumsiness, imbalance.
  • Change handwriting.
  • Visual impairment.

The spread of the tumor to the spinal cord leads to the addition of back pain, problems with urination, work of the gastrointestinal tract, and walking.

How is medulloblastoma treated?

Complex treatment of a brain tumor gives the greatest effect. At the first stage, surgical removal of the tumor node is carried out, at the second – radiotherapy or the appointment of chemotherapy drugs.

Surgical removal

Лікування медулобластоми - операція

 

Early detection of medulloblastoma, when it has the appearance of a demarcated node and does not grow into adjacent anatomical structures, allows to remove the tumor completely and significantly increases the chances of recovery. Partial removal of the tumor is also possible, but in this case a course of radiation or radiotherapy must be prescribed. The operation is performed under general anesthesia, involves trepanation of the skull and requires competent postoperative discharge of the person in the intensive care unit.

Radiation and chemotherapy

Medulloblastoma cells are sensitive to ionizing radiation and chemotherapeutic drugs. The exception is recurrent tumors that occur again in the home of already cured cancer. The age limit for prescribing radiation therapy is up to 3 years.

Targeted therapy

The method involves prescribing specific drugs that selectively inhibit metabolic processes in cancer cells and prevent their division. The selection of targeted drugs effective for this specific medulloblastoma is based on complex genetic tests. During the examination, mutations are searched for in 790 genes responsible for the transition of normal cells to tumor growth. Лікування медуллобластоми - променева терапія

 

 

The course of treatment is designed for several months or even years. Medicines are prescribed in the form of tablets, which greatly facilitates treatment.

Immunotherapy

It is a relatively new and technically complex method of treatment, which allows you to direct the power of the body’s own immune system to the fight against the tumor. To do this, a biopsy of the tumor node is performed, a tissue sample is obtained, and in laboratory conditions, a vaccine is obtained that “teaches” the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. The vaccine is made individually and is effective only against the specific tumor of the patient. Supplementing the effect of the vaccine is the introduction of a virus into the human body that selectively affects tumor cells.

How is medulloblastoma treated here and abroad?

Our domestic doctors are ready to do anything to help the patient. But their possibilities are significantly limited due to the sharp shortage of modern chemotherapy drugs, the lack of necessary equipment and the possibility of implementing new treatment methods. Medulloblastoma is a potentially incurable tumor, provided that therapy is carried out according to the highest global standards. In the leading oncology clinical centers of Europe and the world, specialists achieve much better results, and cancer is not the kind of pathology in which the patient has a second chance for treatment.

Where to go for medulloblastoma treatment?

For the treatment of medulloblastoma, Experts Medical recommends San Juan de Deu Children’s Hospital (Barcelona, Spain) first of all. Adequate medical care can be provided here to children and adolescents of any age. The German Center IOZK, located in Cologne, specializes in immunotherapy of malignant brain tumors. Neuropsychological clinic NP BRAIN HOSPITAL (Istanbul, Turkey) performs neurosurgical operations at a high technical level and provides its patients with spiritual service.
