Patient's question:
My child is 10 years old and had a right temporal lobe resection with HWO I grade spindle cell and histiocytic tissue. The doctor said the removal was very thorough and suggested that a chromosomal examination might not be necessary. Everything has been normal since the surgery.Doctor's answer:
A refers to tumor cells that are spindle-shaped and elongated, with a thicker middle section compared to the sides. This is only a descriptive diagnosis and does not provide a definitive confirmation. It could be a benign tumor or a malignant tumor, and the morphology alone cannot determine this. In such cases, multiple diagnostic tests are needed, such as immunohistochemical testing, to help identify the type of tumor. The above is advice on this issue, and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
