IDH1-mutant, 1p/19q non codeleted oligoastrocytoma, needs help
This came in to my inbox, and I was asked to post it to the blog:My son was diagnosed at age 17 with IDH+ 1p/19q negative left frontal lobe oligoastrocytoma...possible recurrence (vs. incomplete resection) at age 18 treated with surgery and proton therapy (no chemo). At the time of starting proton therapy, it was felt that there might a small left-over area in the middle of his tumor bed--but all scans clean for years. He has done fairly well for years with no treatment. His aim has been to be a neurologist...graduated college Phi Beta Kappa, very good MCAT scores, and now first year medical student. 6 month scan today shows a 6.6 mm nodule enhancing in the middle of his tumor bed. Never had enhancement before. Understandably, I am devastated. He is not certain that he wants more surgery. However, it is not near a critical structure. BUT....if there is treatment after surgery, want surgery done at place where could be coordinated with further treatment. I have been reading your blog daily for years and greatly value your wisdom (based on evidence-based medicine) and that of many of your commentators.
Thank you so much for any help!!
