"Replying to @megancisme0 the answer to this weeks case study is a meningioma A meningioma is a tumor that arises from the meninges the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. Although not technically a brain tumor it is included in this category because it may compress or squeeze the adjacent brain nerves and vessels. Meningioma is the most common type of tumor that forms in the head. #neurosurgery #casestudy #sundaycasestudy #ladyspinedoc #brainsurgery #braintumor #trauma #mvc #firstresponders #healthcareworker #hospital #surgery #headaches #neurosurgeon #medicalschool #medstudent"

This causes high-pressure arterial blood to flow directly into fragile veins which were never designed to handle that stress. Over time this can lead to: ⚠ Micro-bleeds (tiny often silent leaks) ⚠ Seizures or headaches ⚠ Stroke or hemorrhage if rupture occurs AVMs are often congenital meaning people are born with them but they may not cause symptoms until later in life.

Discs that become herniated usually are in an early stage of degeneration. The spinal canal has limited space which is inadequate for the spinal nerve and the displaced herniated disc fragment. Due to this displacement the disc presses on spinal nerves often producing pain which may be severe. Herniated discs can occur in any part of the spine."

They may be present in the brain or spinal cord. The vessels contain slow-moving blood that's usually clotted. CCMs which look like a small mulberry can create problems in the brain or spinal cord due to leaking of blood in some people.

This degeneration can occur slowly over time as a person ages and it's most common in people over XX years of age. It often occurs in the lower back or lumbar spine which is most susceptible to changes due to aging.

"@elle 💗 What is a spinal cord stroke Spinal cord stroke is a rare type of stroke with compromised blood flow to any region of spinal cord owing to occlusion or bleeding leading to neuronal death. It can be classified into two types ischemic and hemorrhagic similar to strokes of the brain. It deprives patients of motor function or sensory function and sometimes both. Infarction usually occurs in regions perfused by anterior spinal artery which spans the anterior two-thirds of spinal cord. Treatments for spinal cord stroke are mainly determined by the symptoms and the causes of the disease."

"Replying to @Kayla Where my Gilbert girlies at I have something called Gilbert syndrome - a benign liver condition Its caused by reduced activity of an enzyme called UGT1A1 which helps the body process bilirubin. 🔹 Commonly shows up as mild jaundice (yellowing of the skin/eyes) often triggered by stress fasting or illness. 🔹 Its inherited and not harmful - no treatment is usually needed. 🔹 Up to 5-10% of people may have it without even realizing. So if youve ever been told you have Gilbert syndrome dont panic - its more of a fun fact about your metabolism than a disease. 💛 #GilbertSyndrome"

Dont wait for symptoms. Dont trust viral myths. Trust evidence. 🎗 Schedule your mammogram. Encourage a friend to do the same."
