Episode 27 of the series “Awlad Al-Ra’i” shocked viewers as the character “Habiba” collapsed and was diagnosed with an advanced malignant brain tumor.
According to Mayo Clinic, brain tumors are abnormal cell growths inside or near the brain. They can develop in nerves, the pituitary gland, the pineal gland, or the membranes covering the brain surface. Brain tumors can be primary (originating in the brain) or secondary (spreading from other body parts). Tumors may be malignant or benign, with sizes varying from very small to very large.
Symptoms depend on tumor size, location, and growth speed. Common signs include persistent headaches, nausea, vision problems, loss of sensation or movement, balance difficulties, speech and memory issues, behavioral changes, seizures, dizziness, and extreme fatigue. Benign tumors usually progress slowly, whereas malignant tumors can appear suddenly and worsen rapidly.
Treatment depends on the type, size, and location of the tumor and may include full or partial surgery, radiation therapy, radiosurgery, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy.
