Intracranial space-occupying lesion - what does this mean
An intracranial space-occupying lesion is a condition where a mass of tissue or a fluid-filled cavity grows within the skull, resulting in increased pressure on the brain. this can be caused by a number of things, including tumors, cysts, abscesses, hematomas, or other structural abnormalities.
What happens during the disease - intracranial space-occupying lesion
Intracranial space-occupying lesions are caused by abnormal growths, such as tumors, cysts, or hematomas, that press on or take up space in the skull. this can lead to increased intracranial pressure, which can cause a variety of neurological symptoms, such as headache, seizures, changes in vision, and cognitive impairment. in addition, depending on the location of the lesion, it may cause compression of vital structures such as the brainstem or cerebellum, leading to further neurological deficits.
