  Patient’s question: Description: craniotomy twice, gamma force surgery once Time: 2001-00-00 to 2005-00-00 Department: Yunnan University Kunming Hospital, the second hospital, swelling A in 2001, secondary glioma, in November 2001 in the second hospital neurosurgery tumor resection surgery, until the disease recurred in 2003, the tumor metastasized from the right side of the left frontal page, and then did a In January 2004, he underwent gamma therapy for the four tumors metastasized on the left frontal page. After a three-month review, he went to Yunnan Cancer Hospital for radiotherapy and chemotherapy for three months after it was confirmed that gamma therapy had not been effective (in April 2005, he found fluid in the middle ventricle again). In the last two days, she had difficulty eating, had a low fever, and her eyes were congested. After receiving an infusion of mannitol and dexamethasone, she improved slightly, but still had a low fever.  Doctor’s reply: Symptomatic and supportive treatment. The cause of the fever should be found as soon as possible. A fever in a long-term bedridden patient must exclude urinary tract infection, respiratory tract infection, and is there a bedsore? If none of the above, central fever needs to be ruled out, and MR scan + enhancement of the head should be checked for intracranial updates.  Patient question: Thank you, doctor. The first three conditions can basically be ruled out. My sister has had a low fever of about 37 degrees from yesterday to today, and now she can basically eat. The brain flat scan, because she] can’t control the head shaking, has gone for several films before without success, I don’t know what to do.  Doctor’s reply: A body temperature of less than 37.3 degrees Celsius is generally considered normal, and “about 37 degrees” is not hypothermia.  For patients who cannot control themselves, sedative-hypnotic drugs can be given before the head MR.
