Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of astrocytoma include eliminating environmental risk factors from happening such as: Exposure to Vinyl chloride, Phenols, Organic solvents, Pesticides, Formaldehyde, Lubricating fluids, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and Previous radiation to the brain.
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of astrocytoma include eliminating environmental risk factors from happening such as:
- Exposure to:[1]
- Vinyl chloride
- Phenols
- Organic solvents
- Pesticides
- Formaldehyde
- Lubricating fluids
- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
