Brain tumors And Mesothelioma Cancer

Brain tumors are usually classified as primary or secondary Kouram. Established tumors of the brain or the basic coverage (mother epidural Dura mater), and secondary tumors migrated (spread) to the brain from other locations, such as lung cancer or breast cancer.
Tumors occur primary or secondary almost the same frequency. While the increase in the average age of the population, with increased incidence of tumors in transition (to give Anagail).
- There is a good feature unique to the basic brain tumors - have not yet explain the cause - namely, that it did not spread outside the brain or spinal cord.
- Several studies have shown over the past few decades that there is a slight rise in the incidence of brain tumors, a new key. The explanation for this is the progress obtained using tomography CT and MRI magnetic resonance during this period, allowing for early detection of small tumors before they develop into the most serious cases.
- Unfortunately, the fundamental cause of most tumors is currently unknown, despite the fact that the Immunosuppressive drugs and the use of radiation to the head may play a role in the development of some cases.
- There are a lot of controversy about the role of mobile phones carcinogenic. In any event, for the time being there is no scientific evidence proved crucial, in such a situation would be prudent to reduce the use of mobile phones (especially when driving!) So that the emergence of studies and data more assertive on the subject. In theory, the kind of children with skull may be more vulnerable to the adverse effects of cellular phones.
What are the symptoms caused by brain tumors?
Brain tumors may cause a large number of different symptoms, depending on the exact location in the brain and the rapid growth and development.
- These symptoms include:
1 - headaches Headaches
Headache when there is more than half of the patients and often lasts for a period of time. Be the worst headache in the morning and may be associated with vomiting, and in any case it is important to realize that the most headaches, in fact, is not due to brain tumors. Therefore, it is important to discuss any lasting headaches with your doctor to clarify if there is any case for concern.
2 - shift Seizures
Brain tumors can cause different shifts, so must the assessment and investigation of any new or old heart unexplained.
3 - Mental Changes mental changes
The specific forms of depression, confusion and personality changes and memory loss.
Other tests
Provides us with a detailed neurological examination with useful information, which prompts us to conduct further tests.
- Requires the diagnosis of brain tumor imaging study. CAT used tomography often tentative, but today is the discovery of more and more tumors MRI MRI. MRI provides us with a detailed picture of the brilliant brain autopsy and pathological changes can occur, and to help the surgeon to develop a safer surgical corridors. Photos of the suspects in the brain in most cases, certain types of tumors, but in the majority of cases are necessary to obtain a sample to develop a firm diagnosis.
Different types of brain tumors
The most basic common brain tumor invited astrocytoma (tumor interstellar - Alndjemom) because it is derived from cells asterisk. These cells form the largest number in the brain, which provides structural support and sustenance of nerve cells (Allneronat - Alasbonat). Represent the neurons (Alasbonat) ‘devices’ which allows the brain to the thought processes happen.
- Asterisk tumors are classified into grades 1-4, grade 1 tumor is a benign tumor, while Class 4 is very malignant. Allegedly tumor grade 4 tumor usually Alorome Aldbaki multiple glioblastoma multiforme.
- Unfortunately, the majority of malignant tumors Astrocytomas asterisk (Class 3 and 4).
- There is a rarer tumor Aldbkiet invited a few Alngsn oligodendroglioma, which is derived from a few cells Aldbakip Alngsn. These cells produce isolated Ghamda Dhennea processes that go in and out of neurons, as electric wire covering a plastic cover.
- Manifest in various forms of these tumors, the patients develop severe headache worse in the morning and often accompanied by vomiting. There may be bouts of weakness, and may affect one side of the body. The personality changes are common.
- Meningitis tumors are tumors derived from the membrane covering the brain (the mother epidural Dura mater). The majority of these tumors - thank God - of the sort Hamid. Decorate these tumors meningitis in particular, often bound to (receivers) and identify the estrogen Albroujstron. The women have a potential of the meningeal tumor, and by the weakness of the men have a breast cancer. Neoplastic meningitis has symptoms similar to the interstellar tumor.
- Pituitary tumors were also more common, and benign tumors. These tumors arise from the pituitary gland at the base of the brain, which produces many hormones, these hormones affect the physical function largely depends on the quality of the hormone to produce. The excessive growth hormone, for example, can make people to become giants. In addition, these tumors can also put pressure on the optic nerve leading to blindness.
- The type of tumor is the next Balchioa audio neuroma acoustic neuroma, which also called tumor Alchweni vestibular or vestibular schwannoma tumor fibroblast sheath nerve neurilemmoma. These benign tumors pressing on the nerve audio (Qahvi VIII), which could lead to the deaf, and ringing in the ears and an imbalance in the balance. That could affect these tumors by one or both sides of the head.
- It is necessary to refer patients with brain tumor and brain surgeon, and the majority will be subject to the process for a biopsy or the eradication of the tumor. Tumors are benign and which are not located in areas of the brain, “noble” (peel the brain for example) can be eliminated, and this often to heal fully. This applies in particular to cases of meningitis tumors, and pituitary tumors Endocrine tumors and audio.
- Require the treatment of malignant brain tumors usually radiotherapy and / or chemical treatment after the surgery. This will help in controlling the tumor for short periods of time.
