What Is a Benign Brain Tumor?
The so-called benign brain tumor refers to a tumor that grows in a certain part of the skull (mostly outside the nerve tissue of the brain), has well-differentiated tissues, grows slowly, and can cure radically. Such as meningiomas, pituitary adenomas, residual tumors of the embryo and vascular tumors.

- Medical pair
- 1. There may be no obvious symptoms early. As the tumor grows, headaches, vomiting, and visual disturbances gradually appear. Symptoms increase progressively. Some can see dizziness, diplopia, psychiatric symptoms, seizures, neck stiffness, and breathing during cerebral hernia, slow pulses, and increased blood pressure. Different symptoms and signs occur due to the location of the tumor.
- 2. X-ray plain film showed evidence of increased intracranial pressure and localization.
- 3 Ultrasound detection centerline wave shifted to the healthy side, the size of the occupying lesion location can be seen, and some tumor pathological waveforms can be seen.
- 4 Isotope concentration can be seen in isotope brain scans.
- 5. Cerebrovascular or ventricular angiography can be used for localization and qualitative diagnosis.
- 6.
- Taking into account the pathological characteristics and combining with clinical, brain tumors can be divided into:
- Glioblastoma, accounting for 45%, ranking first in brain tumors;
- (1) headache: nature is more severe, often in the early morning, and sometimes awoken in sleep, but after getting up and mild activities, headache will gradually ease or disappear.
- (2) Vomiting: Due to the increased intracranial pressure, the medulla oblongata respiratory center is stimulated, which causes vomiting. Vomiting usually occurs after a headache and is jet-like.
- (3) Impaired vision: When the intracranial pressure increases, the venous blood in the eyeballs will not return smoothly, resulting in congestion and edema, and damage to the visual cells on the fundus retina, resulting in decreased vision.
- (4) Mental abnormalities: Brain tumors located in the frontal lobe of the brain can destroy the mental activity of the frontal lobe, causing mental abnormalities such as excitement, restlessness, depression, depression, forgetting, and fiction.
- (5) Unilateral limb paresthesia: It is located in the parietal lobe in the middle part of the cerebral hemisphere, which is dedicated to sensation. Tumors in this part often cause unilateral limb pain, warmth, vibration, and physical discrimination.
- (6) Phantom smell: Temporal lobe tumors can show phantom smell under their stimulation, that is, they can smell a non-existent odor, such as charred rice or charcoal rubber.
- (7) Hemiplegia or gait gait: Cerebellar lesions are more specific, that is, patients with brain tumors often experience hemiplegia or cymbal drunk gait after headache, vomiting, and visual impairment.
- (8) Tinnitus and deafness: This type is often found when calling, that is, one ear can hear and the other ear cannot hear. This manifestation is mostly a precursor to acoustic neuroma.
- (9) Giant disease: more common in pituitary tumors. It is manifested that the patient grows rapidly and acromegaly (large chin, large nose, lips, tongue, hypertrophy, abnormally large hands and feet).
- (10) Stop growth and development in young children: common in craniopharyngioma. The clinical manifestations are that the body size of a fifteen or sixteen is only five or six years old, the sexual characteristics are not developed, and the belly is full of fat, which looks like a "juvenile fortune".
- If these early signals of brain tumors occur in life, effective treatment must be made in time to avoid causing a great threat to everyone's health and life, so it must be found in time and treated early.
- Benign brain tumor symptoms
- 1. Headache is the earliest and most common symptom of brain tumor. It is found in 82% ~ 90% of patients, and the degree is different. It is intermittent at first, and it is more and heavier in the morning and at night. The pulsatile dullness or tenderness in the forehead or both temporal regions are often persistent. Cough, exertion,
- Radiotherapy
- Pay attention to food hygiene and avoid carcinogens such as benzopyrene and nitrosamines from entering the body. Pay attention to personal hygiene, exercise, strengthen resistance, and prevent viral infections. Avoid brain trauma, and should be cured in time when brain trauma occurs. People who already suffer from intracranial tumors should not give birth anymore. In daily life, you should eat more yellow-green vegetables and fruits, such as carrots, pumpkins, tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, spinach, jujube, bananas, apples, mango and so on.
