  schema:description "Germ cell tumours of the brain grow near the pineal gland or above the pituitary in teenagers. The commonest kind, germinoma, is so sensitive to radiation and chemotherapy that most patients are cured; the other kinds need stronger chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and doctors measure two proteins in the blood and spinal fluid to tell them apart and to follow treatment."@en ;
