Abstract

Gliomas are brain tumours that grow from glial cells. Glial cells supply energy and nutrition to nerve cells while also helping to keep the blood-brain barrier intact. Glioma is a cancer of the brain and spinal cord that affects the brain and spinal cord. Gliomas start in the gluey supporting cells (glial cells), which surround nerve cells and help them operate. A glial cell is a type of supporting cell in the brain. Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymal cells are the three primary types of supporting cells in the brain. Astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, and ependymoma are examples of gliomas. In normal cells, new cells replace old or damaged cells in a controlled manner.


Tumor cells reproduce in an uncontrollable manner for unknown causes.A primary brain tumour is a malignant development that begins in the brain and seldom spreads to other regions of the body. 


Clinical findings: Patient came with the complainant of headache, since 15 days nausea or vomiting, since  , since 5 days memory loss.


Main diagnosis, therapeutic interventions, and outcomes: A 55 years old male  patients came with complaint of headache, nausea or vomiting, memory loss and after all investigation is done, patient was diagnosed as brain tumour left side query with glioma. Patient were then treated with  tab .pan , tab. Dolo, Inj.Dexa, Inj.Cefrezine.


Conclusion:This type of glioblastoma has a better prognosis than other types of gliomas. A large total resection can control seizures completely while also preventing recurrence.However, longer followup periods are required to accurately estimate the time to recurrence and what additional treatment, such as adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation, is required for this newly discovered brain tumour.
