What is a glioma?

Gliomas are the most common malignant tumors of the cranium and brain, and can develop with symptoms such as headaches and blurred vision.
Glioma is a collective term for tumors originating from normal glial cells and neuronal cells, which can be classified into astrocytomas, glioblastomas, oligodendrogliomas and other types. The causes of this disease are mainly related to electromagnetic radiation, viral infection and genetic factors.
Early onset of glioma may have headache, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision and other symptoms, with the progress of the disease may be manifested as persistent headache, vision loss, hemiparesis, and in severe cases, may even be complicated by brain hernia and death.
The prognosis of glioma is often poor, so it is recommended that people suffering from glioma should go to the neurosurgery department of the hospital as soon as possible in order to maximize the prognosis.
