Recent Advances in The Treatment of Pediatric Brain Tumor

Abstract

According to the observation, the study of disease transmission, and final products program the most common cause of cancer-related death in children are pediatric brain tumors. In the last few decades it have been seen that survival rate of these pediatric brain tumor’s patient is increased 35% in 5 years and these is because of advances in treatment like surgical techniques, neuroimaging techniques which includes MRA, MSA , DSA and pet scan radiation therapy and by using this neuroimaging techniques and guided stereotactic surgery, advances in surgical resection leads to decrease the rate of morbidity. Advances in molecular targeted therapy and radiation therapy like fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) and MRT also shows improvement in the decrease the rate of morbidity. Immunotherapy, convection enhanced delivery, and gene therapy like strategies and approaches are currently in clinical trials and which will help in future advances.
