What is the chance of glioma being inherited?

Patients with gliomas are very worried about whether they will pass on the disease to the next generation, who will also suffer from the same disease. They are very troubled and helpless. Will gliomas kill people? How serious is the threat to life? Can it take people's lives at any time? Let's take a look at the probability of glioma inheritance.

Clinical manifestations of glioma: 1. Headache, nausea, vomiting, headache mostly located in the forehead and temporal region, persistent headache with paroxysmal aggravation, often more severe in the morning, normal in the interval. 2. Papilledema and decreased vision 3. Mental and consciousness disorders and other symptoms: dizziness, diplopia, transient blackout, cataplexy, confusion, mental restlessness or apathy, epilepsy, and even coma may occur. 4. Changes in vital signs: moderate and severe acute intracranial pressure increases often cause slow breathing and pulse, and increased blood pressure.

The symptoms and signs caused by brain gliomas mainly depend on their space-occupying effect and the functions of the affected brain areas. Glioma can cause headaches, nausea and vomiting, epilepsy, blurred vision and other symptoms in patients due to its "space-occupying" effect in space. In addition, due to its impact on the function of local brain tissue, it can also cause other symptoms in patients. For example, optic nerve gliomas can cause patients to lose their vision; spinal cord gliomas can cause patients to have symptoms such as limb pain, numbness and weakness; central area gliomas can cause patients to have movement and sensory disorders; language area gliomas can cause patients to have difficulties in language expression and understanding. Glioma has different symptoms at different speeds due to different malignancies. For example, the medical history of patients with low-grade gliomas is often several months or even years, while the medical history of patients with high-grade gliomas is often several weeks to several months. Based on the patient's medical history, symptoms and signs, the location and malignancy of the lesion can be preliminarily inferred. However, the final positioning and qualitative diagnosis must also take into account other examinations, including magnetic resonance imaging and the final diagnostic criteria-pathological diagnosis.

Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors caused by cancerous changes in glial cells in the brain and spinal cord. The annual incidence is about 3-8 people per 100,000 population. Like other tumors (diseases), gliomas are caused by the interaction of congenital genetic high-risk factors and environmental carcinogenic factors. Some known genetic diseases, such as neurofibromatosis (type I) and tuberculous sclerosis, are genetic susceptibility factors for gliomas.
