Hi Dr. Landolfi;
Here is the next question from the group. First though, I want to pass on the sincere "thanks" expressed by many of the group members for your assistance.
What is a sub-ependymoma, and how does it differ from an ependymoma?
Thank you (as always)
Bruce
The doctor's response...
Ependymal is the lining of the ventricles and other csf (spinal fluid spaces). Tumors that arise from the lining are ependymomas and those that arise under the lining (another set of cells) are sub-ependymomas.
