Another productive Saturday in the WISH lab for our residents, fellows and final round of sub-I’s. Drill the bone, leave the brain alone! #neurosurgery #nsgy #braintumor #skullbase #MedTwitter

Perhaps the biggest tumor I’ve removed to date. A 9 cm grade 2 meningioma in a 45yo with aphasia and facial droop. He made a full recovery and elected for observation rather than radiation post-op, no recurrence yet at 6 months #braintumor #neurosurgery #nsgy #skullbase #meded

Do you have a grade 2 or 3 glioma, or any grade of IDH-mutant glioma (e.g. astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, or mixed glioma)? If so, consider joining Low Grade Glioma Registry. Our goal is to learn more about what causes these brain tumors and how best to treat them. gliomaregistry.org
