Astrocytoma: treatment of pediatric oncology in Israel

Astrocytoma in oncology is a tumor formed from cells of the brain and spinal cord. In children, the most commonly diagnosed slow-growing pilocetary astrocytoma, which develops in the cerebellum and in the optic nerve. Often, a tumor such as astrocytoma in children develops as a result of a genetic predisposition, but there may be other causes of childhood oncology.

The main symptoms of childhood astrocytma in a child are frequent headaches, impaired coordination and vision as a result growth of astrocytoma. Timely accurate diagnosis of cancer plays a decisive role in this case for the health and life of the child. Specialists in Israeli clinics have at their disposal all the necessary equipment to accurately determine the location of the astrocytoma, the size and type of tumor. It uses advanced methods of treating diseases related to pediatric oncology, and the cost of services is much lower than the prices of some European and American clinics. This explains the fact that thousands of cancer patients arrive in Israel every year, including children, whose parents are looking for the best effective cancer treatment methods.

Methods for diagnosing and treating pediatric astrocytoma

Every child with a preliminary diagnosis of "cancer", staying in an Israeli clinic, first of all passes a consultation with a specialist in the field of oncology, who conducts an examination, gets acquainted with the results of tumor studies and, at his discretion, may prescribe additional procedures for the child. Astrocytoma is diagnosed in a child with the help of procedures such as CT, MRI, etc.

The procedures for diagnosing cancer take no more than 2-3 days, after which a council of doctors establishes an accurate diagnosis and prescribes a treatment plan for astrocytoma tumor in a child. At this stage, parents can find out the exact cost of oncology therapy. Parents of a child can get preliminary information on the cost of services for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer online by contacting the website of a certain clinic working in the field of oncology.

Treatment of this type of childhood cancer, such as astrocytoma, is carried out by different methods. In most cases, the astrocytoma is removed by surgery, and pediatric oncology can be completely defeated. With timely diagnosed astrocytomas in children, the prognosis is usually favorable, since cancer does not tend to relapse and the tumor has a low degree of malignancy.

In cases where the astrocytoma in a child cannot be completely removed, after surgery the intervention involves radiotherapy with the placement of the radiation source in the area of ​​the tumor so as to minimize the effect on adjacent tissues. Chemotherapy is also an alternative treatment for childhood astrocytoma. The technique with the involvement of effective and maximally safe drugs for the child is used after excision of the tumor, as well as in the case when radiotherapy is impossible due to the too young age of the child who has been diagnosed with oncology.
