"Usually dizzy, headaches do not care, if it is not suddenly fainted and then seizures to the hospital for examination, I would not have thought that there was a tumor in the brain that was 6 centimeters large!" On January 4, recalling the diagnosis of cerebral neoplasia stroke, Mr. Wu and his family, 52, still have palpitations.
According to the family, Mr. Wu's body has always been very healthy, but in the past one or two years, he has always had symptoms of dizziness and headaches, and the number of attacks has become more and more frequent and the time has become longer and longer. At first, he thought that he didn't sleep well after drinking, and the family didn't care too much. Half a month ago, when Mr. Wu got up to pour water, he suddenly fainted, and although he quickly woke up, his family rushed him to the nearby Wuhan Brain Hospital Yangtze River Shipping General Hospital for examination. On the way, Mr. Wu's condition took a sharp turn for the worse, and even his limbs began to twitch continuously. Seeing the situation, the hospital immediately started the stroke green channel, combined with the patient's continuous aggravation of the disease, neurosurgery receiving expert Professor Cen Bo highly suspected that Mr. Wu may have a mass lesion in the skull, and recommended that he immediately improve the head imaging examination for him to confirm the diagnosis.
Emergency examination revealed a large mass lesion in the patient's left frontal area with a hematoma, confirming Cen Bo's hypothesis. After stabilizing vital signs, the neurosurgery team of the hospital performed surgery on Mr. Wu in time, and the patient was diagnosed with a brain tumor with stroke during the operation. Through the precise positioning of neural navigation, Professor Cen Bo's team carefully peeled off the tumor while stopping the bleeding and clearing the hematoma, and after 6 hours of meticulous operation, on the basis of protecting the surrounding normal brain tissue and blood vessels, the brain tumor was successfully completely removed.
Usually said stroke is related to cerebrovascular damage, what is this brain tumor stroke? Cen Bo said that this is because the symptoms of some brain tumors after bleeding are similar to stroke attacks, which are mainly manifested by syncope, hemiplegia, aphasia, etc., and it is easy to be confused and miss the golden treatment period. Cerebral neoplastic stroke is generally relatively slow, and the symptoms are persistent and progressively worse, similar to Mr. Wu's performance. Fortunately, the treatment is timely, at present, after careful treatment and nursing, Mr. Wu's dizziness and headache have been significantly alleviated, and epilepsy has not occurred again.
Cerebral neoplastic stroke, also known as intracranial tumor hemorrhage, once the onset of the disease is very easy to cause the original symptoms and signs to worsen rapidly, and then syncope, epilepsy, coma, and even life-threatening. Cen Bo reminded that once there is inexplicable dizziness and headache in daily life, especially when the duration and frequency of onset are significantly prolonged and increased, do not be careless, and must go to the hospital as soon as possible to rule out the possibility of brain tumors. If the diagnosis is confirmed, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice as soon as possible to avoid worsening the condition due to the development of cerebral tumor stroke and causing irreversible nerve damage.
