Certain factors affect prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options.
The prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options depend on:
- The type of brain stem glioma
- Where the tumor is found in the brain and if it has spread within the brain stem
- Whether or not the child has a condition called neurofibromatosis type 1
- Whether the tumor has just been diagnosed or has recurred (come back)
