summary

Now people's living standards are relatively good, so many people began to pay attention to their own body, I believe many people do not have a special understanding of medulloblastoma. Next, I would like to share with you the commonness of medulloblastoma.

Are there many patients with medulloblastoma

First of all, now many people's daily living habits are not particularly good, so often lead to medulloblastoma this disease.

Secondly, the course of medulloblastoma is relatively short, which is determined by the biological characteristics of the tumor. Nearly half of the patients had a course of disease within one month, and a few of them had a course of several years. The literature reported that the general course of disease was 4-5 months, and the course of disease became longer with the increase of the patient's age. Medulloblastoma is often neglected by patients, relatives and doctors because of its hidden growth and lack of early symptoms. The first symptoms were headache (68.75%), vomiting (53.75%) and gait instability (36.25%). Later, diplopia, ataxia and vision loss may occur. The main manifestations were increased intracranial pressure and ataxia, diplopia and various neurologic disorders were common in patients with brain stem involvement, and ankylosis and torticollis were common in patients with cerebellar tonsillar hernia. Intracranial pressure increased because most of the tumors obstructed the fourth ventricle.

Finally, surgical resection is the main method for the treatment of this disease. After median posterior craniotomy, the tumor should be completely or nearly completely removed as far as possible to restore the patency of the obstructed fourth ventricle, and the necessary radiotherapy should be supplemented after the operation. When the tumor was resected, the tumor was separated along the arachnoid interface of the tumor surface as far as possible, and the operation was gentle. Bilateral posterior inferior cerebellar arteries are often found to be posterolateral to the tumor when separating the lower pole of the tumor.
