You've faced major challenges. A glioblastoma, a grade IV brain tumor, causes jerky movements, weakness, and walking difficulty. Sometimes they grow rapidly, making early detection tricky. Surgery aims to remove most of the tumor. Then radiation and chemotherapy followed. Discuss treatment options thoroughly with your neurologist. Stay resilient during this difficult time.

My daughter is challenging with obstructive hydrocephalus.so you are suggesting me.who is the best doctor to my baby?
Female | 10 months
Symptoms may include headaches, vomiting, blurred vision, and changes in behavior. This condition arises when fluid accumulates in the brain, often due to blockages. Seeking advice from a pediatric neurologist or neurosurgeon specialized in this area is essential for proper diagnosis and management. They can recommend effective treatment options, which may include surgery to relieve pressure. I encourage you to reach out to a local children's hospital for a referral to a qualified specialist.

I have an arteriovenous malformation with an arteriovenous fistula in the right foot, below the first metatarsal, which treatment is indicated?
Male | 15
Treatment for arteriovenous malformation with an arteriovenous fistula in the right foot below the first metatarsal depends on the size and location of the malformation, the severity of symptoms, and your overall health. Treatment options may include surgery, embolization, or a combination of both. Consult with a vascular surgeon to determine the best course of treatment.

Yes, Absent epilepsy is curable. Anti-epileptic drugs are helpful. EEG tests can be used to diagnose absence epilepsy. In most children, seizures can be controlled through medication. Early treatment is essential. Medicate as directed by the doctor.

Subtle acute subarachnoid hemorrhage involving right tentorial leaflet
Female | 60
If you had this condition, it would signify that there has been a tiny amount of blood leaked into the brain lining on the right side. Symptoms might include severe head pain, vomiting, nausea, and stiffness in the neck. Causes can be high blood pressure or an injury to the head such as from a fall or car accident. An aneurysm burst occurs when a weak spot in a blood vessel wall swells like a balloon. Eventually, it bursts, releasing its contents into surrounding tissues, potentially affecting the brain. Often treatment involves being closely watched in the hospital where doctors will also do some tests before deciding what might need doing next. Remember always to follow your neurologist's advice carefully.
