Initial symptoms of glioma?

summary

With the development of MRI and other imaging techniques, the diagnosis of glioma has become easier. However, not all patients can be found in the early stage of the disease and go to the hospital for examination, but come to see a doctor when the tumor volume is large. Initial symptoms of glioma? Let's talk about it

Initial symptoms of glioma?

1. Headache: about 30% of glioma patients have headache, and about 70% of them will get worse gradually. This kind of headache mostly has no specificity, but presents intermittent, mostly located in the same side of the lesion, showing dull pain rather than jumping pain, sometimes not easy to distinguish with tension headache. Brain gliomas usually show pain in the forehead, while cerebellar gliomas usually show pain in the occipital and neck. If the tumor is too large and produces high intracranial pressure, the headache will be aggravated obviously. Sometimes, the headache will be awakened by pain during sleep, and it will be aggravated obviously when the head is active, sometimes accompanied by nausea and vomiting. If the intracranial hypertension lasts for a long time, there will be visual decline.

2. Mental changes: about 15-20% of glioma patients have mental state changes as the first symptom, mainly manifested as changes in mood, personality, cognitive function, memory and other aspects.

3. Focal neurological symptoms: different tumor locations can also cause corresponding neurological deficit symptoms, such as limb paralysis, sensory impairment, aphasia, gait instability, dyslexia and agraphia.
