How did the first craniotomy go? Any complications? I have been diagnosed a few months ago just waiting to see next MRI in March to see if it’s grown. When I had consultation with both neurosurgeons from Stanford and UCSF said they think the could get it all and wouldn’t need radiation. I understand each person and tumor is different

@as72 sorry ment to reply sooner . The first operation went well . They felt they had gotten it all . I did not have radiation following that until another popped up . I thought it was now all good . I am now working on what I need to do now . Look for further opinions.

@as72 The first one went well . I did have a complication after and had to have a drain put in to get rid of blood . I feel they pulled my post op drain too soon . Then I had an other pop up and had Cyberknife.
I have gone 5 years but now having regrowth . I am looking at further surgery. As you say they are all different.
