She’s had the tumor removed and is scheduled for stereotactic radiation surgery on 1/12. She has no cancer anywhere else. We are looking for some direction as this is very rare. 2nd opinion or any suggestions as to treatment is what we are after. Have heard her cancer might respond to keytruda but the chemo oncologist says chemo and keytruda are not shown to be beneficial at this time as there is not evidence of any active tumor right now.

I wish you and your wife all the best with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). A fellow Connect member, @mrser52, just completed SRS treatment for tentorial menigioma. While it was not for metastasis as in your wife's situation, perhaps you'd like to ask Mrser52 questions about what SRS treatment was like and what you might expect tomorrow.

I will answer any question that you and your wife might have. Happy to help.

this has just happened to me. tumour was removed form cerebellum radiation is suggested but oncologist says as there is no evidence of it i am better to wait. How did you make out with yours staying hopeful? I notice his is from 2017 . so weird to have it show up in the brain eh?
