Glioma: Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment - Aaron Cohen-Gadol, M.D.

Welcome to our guide on gliomas, where we delve into the critical aspects of this complex brain tumor. In this video, you'll learn about the symptoms, causes, diagnostic methods, and treatment options available for glioma patients.
Gliomas are primary brain tumors that originate from the brain or spinal cord. They are classified into four grades based on their growth rate and aggressiveness. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, with the prognosis depending on factors like tumor grade, size, and location.
In this video, we cover:
- Symptoms of Glioma: Discover the common signs and symptoms that indicate the presence of glioma, including headaches, seizures, and cognitive changes.
- Causes of Glioma: Learn about the risk factors and potential causes.
- Diagnosis: Explore the diagnostic procedures used to detect gliomas.
- Treatment Options: Get insights into various treatment modalities, including surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.

Key moments:
00:12 Neurosurgeon Erin Cohen discusses gliomas, primary brain tumors that can invade but typically do not spread outside the brain, classified into four grades based on growth and invasion.
04:07 Astrocytomas and glioblastomas are challenging brain tumors to treat due to their infiltrative nature and potential for significant neurological impact, requiring a combination of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy for management.
08:21 Glioblastoma treatment involves surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, with limited survival time. Ependymomas originate from ependymal cells, common in children, and may require surgery, radiation, or shunting for treatment. Oligodendrogliomas are tumors of oligodendrocytes found in adult males, affecting brain regions related to higher function and personality.
12:23 Oligodendrogliomas can be treated with surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy. Prognosis varies based on tumor grade and genetic mutations, with appropriate therapy positively impacting patient lifespan.

THANK YOU FOR DEDICATING YOUR LIFE TO THIS CAUSE SIR.

Are you seeing patients? My daughter has an inoperable ganglioglioma in left frontal lobe. Her tumor causes awful seizures. We don’t know what to do or how to help her. Chemo only made the seizures worse but did make the tumor stable.

Sending prayers and good wishes for your family 🙏

Respected doctor, I'm sravani from India.
My husband diagnosed with glioblastoma in August 2022. He underwent surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Now he is on adjuvant temozolomide therapy from past there months. He is experiencing severe lower limbs pain, nausea and occasional headache. Memory problems, emotionally down, mood disorders are also there
This is his biopsy report. Will u plz review his life span according to this 🙏
Immunohistochemistry:
Olig2-positive
IDHI p.R132H-positive ATRX- loss of nuclear expression
p53- negative
Ki67 labelling index- 18-20%
Final Impression: Astrocytoma, IDH mutant, CNS WHO grade 4, left frontal Advised MGMT promoter methylation study.
