Today, we embark on a profound journey into the depths of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), the deadliest brain tumor known to mankind. In this captivating video, we delve into the intricacies of this formidable adversary, uncovering the stories of those affected and exploring the latest advancements in research and treatment.

Glioblastoma Multiforme, or GBM, is a high-grade glioma that arises from glial cells in the brain. Its aggressive nature and ability to infiltrate the brain's delicate structures present immense challenges for both patients and medical professionals. Sadly, GBM has a poor prognosis, with an average survival rate of just 15 months.

Through compelling interviews with medical experts, we gain a deeper understanding of this relentless brain tumor. Discover the complexities of GBM, from its invasive nature to the difficulties in achieving complete surgical removal. Experts shed light on the reasons behind the high recurrence rate, despite the best available treatments.

To truly grasp the impact of Glioblastoma Multiforme, we give voice to the stories of patients and their families who have faced this formidable foe firsthand. Listen to their emotional experiences, as they navigate the uncertainties and cherish every moment together. Their journeys inspire us to appreciate the resilience and strength displayed in the face of such adversity.

Amidst the challenges, there is hope on the horizon. Join us as we explore cutting-edge research facilities, where dedicated scientists, researchers, and medical professionals are tirelessly working towards unraveling the mysteries of GBM. Discover the innovative treatment strategies they are developing, such as immunotherapies, targeted therapies, and gene-based therapies, in the quest to improve patient outcomes.

We also highlight success stories of patients who have defied the statistics and fought back against GBM. Their stories of resilience and determination provide inspiration and remind us that there is always hope, even in the face of the deadliest brain tumor.

Join us on this captivating journey as we dive into the world of Glioblastoma Multiforme. Together, let's raise awareness, support those affected, and work towards a future where this devastating disease can be conquered. Subscribe to our channel to stay updated on the latest advancements and inspiring stories in the fight against GBM.

Remember, knowledge is power, and by understanding Glioblastoma Multiforme, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by this deadliest brain tumor.

Symptoms of Brain Tumor #shorts #braintumorawareness #symptomsofbraintumor #tumor

A brain tumor is a condition in which cells in a specific area of our brain grow abnormally and add mass.
The brain is a complex organ located inside our skull.
The brain controls all voluntary and involuntary bodily functions.
However, cells in a specific part of our brain can grow abnormally and cause extra mass inside brain.
This mass puts pressure on the inside of the skull.
As a result, the patient experiences some symptoms.
like severe pain in head
vomiting, vision loss, double vision, difficulty speaking and hearing
body balance issues, numbness in any part of the body, or epilepsy etc.
all these symptoms appears in the patient at the initial stage of brain tumor
Tumors or cancer are caused by DNA mutations within cells.
which have many causes
as some people work in areas with high levels of radiation
where x-rays and ultraviolet rays frequently strike their bodies
due to which these radiations cause mutation in the DNA
due to which cells starts to grow abnormally
beside this some people develop tumor due to some genetical reasons
and this condition runs in the family
beside this viral or bacterial infections or any strong chemical can also cause tumors
brain tumor can happen in both males and females
but in males the ratio of brain tumor is high
This is because men can work outside of the home
where radiations and chemical exposure is high
brain tumor should be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible
because if left untreated it creates pressure on other cells of the brain
As a result, other cells begin to die, which can lead to death of the patient
A surgical procedure is performed to treat brain tumor called craniotomy
in craniotomy scalp is cut and skull is opened
and than with the help of surgical instruments tumor is removed
Radiotherapy or chemotherapy are also used to eliminate any remaining tumor cells.
so that the chances of developing tumor again decreases
