Is pineal tumor serious?

A pineal tumor is an important part of our brain, that is, this organ. Its location is relatively close to the brain stem ventricles. Therefore, if we say pineal tumor, it may not be a big problem when it is young. If it is bigger, it will cause local brainstem or ventricular compression, and it will show some corresponding central symptoms, such as affecting vision, affecting balance, affecting walking, affecting nervous system, numbness, etc. However, pineal tumors are mostly germinomas. Some gliomas can also occur, so it is also related to the pathological type of tumor. If it is a germ cell tumor, it may occur in adolescents, and it can get a significant remission after treatment. Therefore, other words can also be relieved after surgery. Therefore, pineal tumors mainly depend on size. If small, it is generally not too serious. If large, it may be more serious.
