Repeated high fever of brain cancer should be alert to the worsening of the disease

Oncology experts say that colds and fevers are very common in our daily lives, and frequent fevers that do not subside are likely to be caused by a brain tumor. You should go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis in time. Should you be alert to the worsening of the disease if you have repeated high fevers in brain cancer? Oncology experts give our friends the following introduction:

Regarding the problem of high fever that does not subside and alerting to brain tumors, oncology experts pointed out that the cause of the fever may be that the toxic substances of the tumor enter the subarachnoid space, causing fever. The characteristics of brain gliomas are headaches, neck pain, and fever, which can be confirmed by CT examination.
The hypothalamus is where the autonomic nerve center is located, and the body temperature center is located in it. Tumors in this area can cause fever, which is difficult to control. It is reported that a patient was admitted to the internal medicine department due to fever. A week later, a head CT scan showed a bleeding spot in the brain above the sella turcica. It was considered to be a hypothalamic tumor or vascular malformation. After angiography, it was confirmed to be a glioma in this area. The patient's body temperature has been 39-40℃. After X-knife treatment, the body temperature gradually returned to normal after 2 weeks, but 2 months later, the body temperature rose again, and the patient had a disturbance of consciousness. He died 6 months after the onset of the disease. Oncology experts remind: If you have symptoms of a cold and fever in daily life and the fever does not subside for a long time, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid worsening of the condition.
