The Advanced Care You Need for SGA Tumors
Although benign, subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SGA) brain tumors can obstruct the flow of spinal fluid and block the brain's ventricles. This kind of tumor is linked to tuberous sclerosis, a rare genetic disease, and can cause symptoms like headache, seizure, nausea, weakness in arms or legs, and problems with speech, vision or memory.
If you're facing an SGA diagnosis, count on our experts within the AdventHealth Neuroscience Institute network. We offer state-of-the-art care for adults and children with SGA tumors, delivering the expertise and compassion you need to heal. Our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive treatments that pinpoint SGAs with millimeter accuracy so that they can be removed, allowing spinal fluid to flow normally again. Recovery times are shorter using these advanced techniques because no incision is made.
