Is headache normal after glioma operation?

summary

It's more than a year since last year's glioma surgery. After finishing glioma operation, often have a headache, is this normal? Glioma, referred to as glioma, is a tumor occurring in the neuroectoderm. There are two types of neuroectodermal tumors, one is gliomas formed by keratinocytes, and the other is neuronal tumors formed by parenchymal cells. Because, from the etiology and morphology, we can not completely distinguish these two types of tumors, let's take a look at the following.

Is headache normal after glioma operation?

First, the diagnosis of gliomas, according to its biological characteristics, as well as age, gender, location of the disease, and clinical process analysis, in the disease and signs based on the use of a variety of examinations, positioning accuracy rate is almost 100%, qualitative diagnosis accuracy rate can be more than 90%. According to the literature, the annual incidence rate of brain glioma in China is 3-6/10 million, with an annual death rate of thirty thousand.

Second, the other is the local symptoms caused by the compression, infiltration and destruction of brain tissue by tumor, resulting in the loss of nerve function. In particular, malignant gliomas grow rapidly, infiltrate and destroy brain tissue, and the surrounding brain edema is obvious. The local symptoms are obvious, and the development is also fast. In some tumors with slow development, the symptoms of increased intracranial pressure usually appear in the late stage.

Third: headache is mostly caused by increased intracranial pressure, tumor growth, gradually increased intracranial pressure, intracranial compression, resulting in pain. Some tumors, especially those located in the frontal lobe, may gradually develop mental symptoms, such as personality changes, apathy, decreased speech and activities, inattention, memory loss, indifference to things, and lack of neatness.

matters needing attention

Especially in male, especially in glioblastoma multiforme and medulloblastoma, male is more than female. Most of them are between 20 and 50 years old, with the peak of 30-40 years old. In addition, 10-year-old children are also more common. For another small peak.
