Leptomeningeal disease is a type of metastatic cancer. The leptomeninges are two layers of tissue covering the brain and spinal cord. They are the innermost layers covering the brain's surface, blood vessels, and cerebrospinal fluid. Five to eight percent of people with cancer will develop leptomeningeal disease. It is estimated that of the ~54,000 Georgians diagnosed each year with invasive cancer, as many as 4,000 are at risk of developing leptomeningeal disease.
Chris Curry sits down with Dr. Wallace, an assistant professor in the Division of Hematology/Oncology within the Department of Medicine at the Medical College of Georgia to discuss Leptomeningeal disease and the newest clinic to aid in patient care and treatment of the disease.
