Neurofibromatosis cannot be prevented. People with a family history of the disease may choose to undergo genetic testing and counseling to determine if they are at risk for transmitting NF to their offspring.
Please find the power point on Brain tumors (Acoustic Neuroma). I tried to present it on understandable way and all the contents are reviewed by experts and from very reliable references. Thank you
you will learn about brain tumor, types of brain tumor, grading of brain tumor, risk factors for brain tumor, diagnosis for brain tumor, treatment for brain tumor, supportive care and rehabilitation for patients with brain tumor.
The term facial palsy generally refers to weakness of the facial muscles, mainly resulting from temporary or permanent damage to the facial nerve
Facial palsy not only cause a paresis of the target muscles, but as the nerve is responsible for a range of facial expressions, it causes serious disturbances in social life, facial expression being so important in transferring emotion.

The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.

Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Meaning, Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, and Mor...The Lifesciences Magazine
Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the deep veins in the legs. These clots can impede blood flow, leading to severe complications.
2. Defination
• Meningiomas are the most common primary central nervous system
(CNS) tumors.
• They are usually benign, slow growing neoplasms.
• They originate from arachnoid cap cells.
• Arachnoid cap cells make up the outer layer of the arachnoid mater
and arachnoid villi.

• Transitional
• Psammomatous
• Angiomatous
• Microcystic
• Secretory
• Lymphoplasmacyte-rich
• Metaplastic
• Atypical
• Clear cell
• Choroid

• Rhabdoid
• Papillary
Diagnostic criteria Presence of <4 mitoses per 10 HPF
1.Presence of 4–19 mitoses per 10 HPF
or
2.Brain invasion
or
3.At least 3/5 of the following:
-Patternless sheeting
architecture
-Small cell formation with high
N/C ratio
-Prominent nucleoli
-Hypercellularity
-Spontaneous intratumoral
micronecrosis
1. Presence of ≥20 mitoses per 10
HPF
or
2. Overtly malignant morphology
(carcinomatous, sarcomatous,
and melanomatous cytology)
9. Symptoms
• Headache
• Seizures
• Changes in personality or behavior
• Progressive focal neurological deficit
• Confusion
• Drowsiness
• Hearing loss on ringing in the ears
• Muscle weakness
• Nausea or voimting
• Visual disorders
12. Falx and Parasagittal meningoma: Impaired levels of brain functioning,
such as in reasoning and memory. If located in the middle section, it
would likely cause leg weakness/numbness or seizures
13. Olfactory Groove meningioma: Loss of smell due to compression of the nerves that
run between the brain and the nose. If the tumor grows large enough, vision
problems may occur due to compression of the optic nerve.
14. Posterior Fossa meningioma: Facial symptoms or loss of hearing due to
compression of cranial nerves, unsteady gait and problems with
coordination.
16. Intraventricular meningioma: May block the flow of cerebrospinal fluid,
resulting in obstructive hydrocephalus, potentially leading to headaches,
lightheadedness and changes in mental function.
17. Spinal meningioma: Back pain or pain in the limbs
caused by compression of the nerves that run into the
spinal cord.
