FEATURES OF CLINICAL AND NEUROLOGICAL PRINCIPLES IN MENINGIOMAS OF THE FRONTAL PART OF THE BRAIN.

Abstract

Abstract: The frontal lobes of the brain are notoriously “silent”: Benign tumors such as meningiomas that compress the frontal lobes from the outside may not produce any symptoms other than progressive change of personality and intellect until they are large. Olfactory groove meningiomas: grow along the nerves that run between the brain and the nose and often cause a loss of smell. They can compress the frontal lobes causing personality changes that may be mistaken for depression. They can also compress the optic nerves, causing visual problems or even blindness.
