Answers:    That put somebody through the mill could only be answered beside more detailed information. Is the mass on her scalp, is it in her brain, if so, what lobe and location. Some tumors of the brain are operable, some are not depending on the location. Also, enjoy the medical personnel said anything about it mortal malignant or benign?

The most proactive thing you can do is go and get the medical records of adjectives laboratory work, radiology (MRI's, CT scans, ultrasounds, etc), adjectives dictation reports from all participating doctors (ie the Radiologist, the primary doctor, etc). Then purchase a medical dictionary and try to make sense of the medical-ese. You might try to find someone with medical experience give support to you. The more questions you ask, you and your Mom can have a handle on and make informed choices on treatments.

Last, but emphatically not least, a POSITIVE ATTITUDE is extremely vital. Negativity turns into stress and stress can manifest itself physically and hinder the nouns of the treatment. I wish you and your Mom the best of luck!

4 cm is somewhat less than 2 inches. There are lots benign tumors, some that grow, some don't. I wish I could be consoling at the holiday time, but there are too tons variables to give you alot of information
