    If I remember correctly, blood vessels usually come into existence to feed existing tumors, thereby effectively contributing to its growth.

  • @shoutatthesky Thats just a guess I don't actually know. I'm sure they don't leave a hole though.

  • @norway362 The dura is stitched closed with dissolving stitches.

  • Tumors form by when cells start reproducing abnormally and it's cells start forming a large tissue which is the tumor

  • Would someone answer my question: How do tumors grow?

  • @norway362 Or they did not fit that in.

  • @norway362 Most of the brain would probably just fill that in because the brain tumor was probably pushing so hard on the rest of the brain.

  • Awesome!!!

  • Me encantaria operar alguna vez asi :) saludos de un estudiante de medicina desde Tucumán, Argentina!
