Real stories from people and families affected by oligodendroglioma.
Here you can read and listen to personal experiences of symptoms, seizures, diagnosis, brain surgery, treatment, recovery, monitoring and life after an oligodendroglioma diagnosis.
Oligodendroglioma is a type of glioma that develops from cells called oligodendrocytes, which help support and protect nerve cells in the brain. These tumours are usually slow-growing, but they can still have a significant impact depending on their location, grade and how they affect the brain.
Some people are diagnosed after seizures or other neurological symptoms, while others may discover the tumour during investigations for something else. Treatment can include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy or regular monitoring, depending on the individual diagnosis.
