Hi all,
I need some help in interpretting my brain MRI. I know we have some experts on this site. My history is bc in 5/00 and single lesion 3.5 cm brain met in 10/01 treated with craniotomy, single lesion 8mm in 2003 treated with craniotomy and a single lesion 5mm in 10/05 treated with stereotactic surgery. 10 months later (today) my last lesion has reoccurred. My oncologist is pushing for a third craniotomy and I do not want it. I wanted to get some other patient feedback.
My brain MRI showed "abnormality and enhancement along the ependyma of the frontal horn of the left ventrical. Area of signal abnormal extends into the adjacent white matter and is consistantfor ependymal mets w/ secondary extension to the brain parenchyma. there is no evidence of mass effect. There is no hemorrhage or extra dural collection.
Any information would be helpful. Thanks!
