Abstract

Background: Regarding to different prevalence and INCIDENCE of GLIAL TUMORS in different societies, histopathologic and clinical varieties and role of appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic measures in outcome we performed this investigation for determination of glial cell origin brain tumors at Loghman hospital during years 1982-2004.Materials and Methods: This study was based on the existing data within patients' files. All patients that underwent craniotomy due to brain mass and with definite glioma pathologic diagnosis included in this study. Demographic characteristics, family history, clinical manifestation, diagnostic evaluations, tumor site, pathologic grading and follow-up data were extracted from patients' files, then classified and reported.Results: In this study 910 cases with definite brain glioma who underwent brain CT or MRI were assessed. There were 97 males (64.6%) and 53 females (35.4%) with glioma grade I: Grade II cases were consisted of 172 males (57.3%) and 128 females (42.7%) as well as 115 males (64%) and 121 females (36%) for grade III and 98 males (79%) and 26 females (21%) for grade IV (GBM) There were 120 cases of cerebellar astrocytomas (73 males and 47 females) Average age of patients with glioma grades II&III were 33.7±17.7; cerebellar astrocytoma 10.2±6.2 and GBM 47±15.6 the most common site of glioma grade I was cerebellum (62.6%) and then cerebral hemispheres (37.4%); grade II cerebral hemispheres (78.6%), brain stem (12.6%) and cerebellum (8.8%) and low grade glioma (grades I,II)in frontal lobe. The most common site of GBM was parietal lobe. Twelve percent of patients were hospitalized due to recurrence of tumor that in half of them cerebellar astrocytoma was the primary tumor. Symptoms of patients with cerebellar astrocytoma were headache (80.8%), nausea & vomiting (79%); with low grade glioma headache (73.8%) and seizure (59%) and with GBM extremities paresis (81.4%) and headache (79%).Conclusion: Demographic characteristics and hemispheric involvement of brain gliomas in this study are not concordant with the results published in the reference texts.
