Abstract [en]

Treatment of adult patients with brain tumors is a multi-disciplinary effort involving several medical disciplines: neurosurgery, oncology, neurology, neuropathology, neuroradiology, and rehabilitation medicine. While the brain tumor field has gone through vast diagnostical changes during the last decade, the hopes of similar achievements in the systemic treatment of these patients with new methods have so far not been fulfilled. As such, neurosurgery still has a pivotal role in the diagnostics and treatment of brain tumor patients. Improved preoperative evaluation of the tumor and adjacent anatomical and functional brain areas, together with advanced microsurgical techniques, intraoperative mapping and monitoring, as well as new minimally invasive techniques, makes brain tumor surgery safer. Indeed, it is now possible to safely operate patients previously considered to have too unfavorable risk-benefit ratio. This article aims at presenting an overview of current neurosurgical treatments of brain tumors.

Abstract [sv]

Behandling av hjärntumörer görs i samverkan mellan flera medicinska discipliner: neurokirurgi, onkologi, neurologi, neuropatologi, neuroradiologi och rehabiliteringsmedicin.

Symtom som talar för förhöjt intrakraniellt tryck, såsom kraftig huvudvärk, illamående, kräkningar och papillödem, bör leda till snabb utredning och kontakt med neurokirurg. 

Förbättrad preoperativ kartläggning av tumören samt angränsande anatomiska och funktionella hjärnområden tillsammans med avancerad mikrokirurgisk teknik, intraoperativ monitorering och visualisering samt nya minimalinvasiva tekniker gör operationer säkrare, och det är i dag möjligt att utföra ingrepp som tidigare ansågs omöjliga eller alltför riskabla.
