Early Surgery of Benefit In Treating a Brain Tumor r

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. ONE of the truly amazing branches of surgery consists of operations on the brain. For hundreds of years this type of operation was practically Impossible, but today we can locate growths, such as tumors, in the brain, open the skull, remove the tumor, and restore the patient to health. There are many types of brain tumors, some of which grow rapidly, others slowly. Some are extremely fatal, while some can be removed readily. Grows Slowly ' One type of brain tumor, which is not too uncommon, is known as an acoustic neurofibroma. This tumor grows slowly and can he definitely cured by surgery. Unfortunately, however, people have a tendency to overlook the signs of such a tumor, and thus delay doing anything about it until it is far advanced. In fact, it has, been found that the average person with such a growth actually enters the hospital three and a half years after the first warning sign. Such delays have caused quite a large number of deaths from brain tumors. If this condition could be diagnosed sooner, the number of these deaths would be smaller, it is believed. First Symptoms ‘ V J The first signs of this type of tumor are usually a gradual deafness and ringing in the ears. These may he the only symptoms • for the first eighteen months. As the growth increases in size, it may bring pains in the face.

MMMi "■ vm Pig MMBI M WELDER Frank Hayostek, 27, of Johnstown, Pa., arrives in,New York from Ireland where he visited Breda O’Sullivan, 23, who found the aspirin bottle contain- ; ing his name and address which he tossed overboard from a troopship after the last war. No romance developed. Here, Hayostek 0 decides to toss in another bottle, ' complete with his name and ad- . dress, into Jamaica Bay, and who i ' knows what will hanoen to it?

I Numbness, with fleeting, burning . | pains around the face, may also ; develop. As the tumor progresses, the person has difficulty in walking, seems to be off balance, and may appear to be drunk. Finally, after another year of Constant growth, the tumor presses on other nerves in the Drain, and the person may have double vision and difficulty in tasting. Surgery Not Too Difficult As a rule, the proper type of Srgery is not too difficult, and e tumor can be removed quite Successfully. f Recently it has been found that if one of the isotopes of boron is injected into a vein, it usually travels to this type of tumor. The boron, which has been made radioactive, 1* very effective in destroying the growth. This may give us a new Way to reach tumors deep in the brain tissue. . i Thus, many brain tumors can be treated with fair success if people will consult their physicians as soon as they are bothered With strange symptoms. i QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS * . i ; C. B.: I have a lung abscess. Will I have tq have an operation? 2 Answer: Lung abscesses, usually, must be treated by means of surgical operation. There are no other measures that will bring About a cure. On the other hand, an operation is hot always possible, since it depends upon the location of the abscess. Os coursej the individual should he under the care of a surgeon. . I . - - •'

Strickland said the operation 12 years ago convinced j> , that the treasure could be found with er excavation equipment. He spends his weekends on the project. No one seems to know exactly why the gold was -buried there but most think that it is. “No, I do not recall the details of the background that led to the belief that a pot of gold was buried on our place,” said Mrs. Bond as she eyed the huge excavation only yards from her front porch, "I do know the site was located by my son, keba Dove.
