Benign meningioma early symptoms

The early symptoms of benign meningiomas vary according to the location and size of the tumor. Normal meningiomas begin with headaches and seizures, which are caused by increased intracranial pressure as the tumor grows. Spinal meningiomas may show decreased sensation in the arms or legs. Meningiomas are derivatives originating in the meninges and meningeal spaces, accounting for 19% of intracranial tumors, ranking second. Meningioma is a benign tumor with slow growth and a long course of disease. Depending on the location of the tumor, it can also show visual, visual, olfactory or auditory disorders and motor disorders of the limbs. In the elderly, epilepsy is the first symptom.
