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, these two types of tumors can not be completely distinguished, so they are collectively referred to as gliomas. Let's take a look at the following.

Is headache normal after glioma operation

First, based on the symptoms and signs, the accuracy rate of positioning is almost 100%, and the accuracy rate of qualitative diagnosis is 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.
