Low-grade gliomas grow into normal brain, and there is often no distinct boundary between the tumor and normal brain. As a result, efforts to remove all tumor cells inevitably remove some of the normal brain and can leave behind tumor cells. The remaining glioma cells continue to grow, eventually causing additional damage to the remaining ...Web
