Treatment of brain glioma

The treatment methods of brain glioma include surgery, radiation therapy, drug therapy and electric field therapy. Generally, surgery is the main treatment. The principle of surgical treatment is to remove the tumor safely in the largest range, to relieve the space-occupying signs and relieve the symptoms of increased intracranial pressure, to relieve or alleviate the related symptoms caused by glioma, such as secondary epilepsy, etc., and to obtain pathological tissue samples to clarify the pathological diagnosis, reduce the tumor burden, and provide conditions for subsequent comprehensive treatment. The surgical treatment of glioma includes tumor resection and pathological biopsy. Tumor resection is the main surgical method. The indications include intracranial mass suggested by head CT or magnetic resonance imaging, obvious signs of intracranial hypertension and cerebral hernia, obvious neurological dysfunction caused by tumor mass, patients with definite history of epilepsy, contraindications are severe cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic and renal dysfunction and recurrence, and patients with poor general conditions who cannot tolerate surgery. Gliomas of the brain can be classified into low-grade, high-grade and recurrent gliomas. In addition, radiation therapy is mainly used for high-grade glioma, low-grade glioma, ependymal tumor and recurrent glioma after the pathology of the tumor is /confirm/ied. Drug therapy is mainly chemotherapy. Chemical drugs are used to kill tumor cells. For high-grade glioma, molecular targeted therapy and biological immunotherapy can be adopted due to rapid growth and recurrence. Electric field therapy is a treatment method that exerts anti-tumor effect by inhibiting mitosis of tumor cells. It is an electric field therapy system for glioma. It is a portable device that generates intermediate frequency and low field strength tumor therapy magnetic field through a conversion sheet applied to scalp.
