Overview
A brainstem glioma is a cancerous glioma tumor which begins from the brain or spinal cord tissue and typically spread throughout the nervous system. Seventy-five percent of brainstem glioma occurs in children and young adults under the age of twenty, but it can also influence older adults. Brainstem gliomas account for about 10-20% of all brain tumors in children. The cause is still not clear. Any direct genetic link has not been found. The prognosis varies depending on the location and the size of the brainstem glioma.
Signs and symptoms
The common symptoms include but not limited to drooping of the face, double vision or not being able to close the eyelids, headache or headache that gets better after vomiting, nausea and vomiting, weakness and fatigue, seizures and balance problems. In summary, common clinical signs and physical exam performance such as constituting a triad of cranial nerve deficits, long tract signs, and ataxia (of trunk and limbs) are present.
