How is glioma inherited

Nowadays, the incidence of brain tumors is getting higher and higher, and the age of onset is also decreasing. Many patients are worried whether it is hereditary. Similarly, glioma is also a brain tumor disease with a high mortality rate. So how is glioma inherited?

There is no clear evidence that gliomas are definitely hereditary, and the medical community has been debating this issue. However, a small number of brain tumors are indeed hereditary, which means that there are congenital brain tumors, such as bilateral acoustic neuromas in multiple neurofibromatosis, which are caused by a genetic defect on chromosomes and have a hereditary tendency. This type of brain tumor can occur in several generations, and several people in the same generation may have it.

Will glioma be passed on to children? Although this question has not yet been determined, there are reports that glioma may be hereditary, and some examples in life seem to confirm this view. Of course, whether glioma is hereditary still needs further medical research. If someone in your family has glioma, it is best to pay great attention to it and do regular anti-cancer physical examinations, but there is no need to worry too much about other things.

Warm reminder: Regardless of whether glioma will be passed on to children, it is necessary for everyone to take precautions. Pay attention to food hygiene to prevent carcinogens such as benzopyrene and nitrosamines from entering the body. Pay attention to personal hygiene, exercise, enhance immunity, and prevent infection. Once brain problems occur, be sure to go to a regular hospital for examination as soon as possible.
