Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumour (DLGNT) is a very rare type of central nervous system tumour. It mostly affects children but can also occur in adults. The tumour spreads along the leptomeninges, which are the thin layers of tissue that cover the brain and spinal cord. Unlike many other brain tumours that form a solid lump or mass, DLGNT spreads like a thin sheet, making it more difficult to detect and treat.
Many sufferers of Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumour struggle because they feel that their disease doesn’t have the same level of awareness as more common cancers. Without a Ribbon is an Australian non-profit organisation that believes that rare cancers should never go unnoticed. We aim to provide a detailed set of resources and information for anyone suffering from cancers such as Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumour . We have recently created an Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumour resource page to help sufferers understand their disease. It covers the symptoms, available treatments and other important information.
We hope that this resource page will help you or a friend/family member to learn about their illness and aid them through their battle with the disease.
