ASTROBLASTOMA

 Astroblastoma is a very rare primary brain tumor. Its diagnosis is often challenging because of the astroblastic aspects that can be found in astrocytic tumors, in ependymomas, and in non-neuroepithelial tumors. Considerable confusion surrounds its histogenesis and classification. The low incidence rate makes it difficult to conduct studies to examine characteristics.

GENERAL PATHOLOGY: -

Since the early 1890s, astroblastoma has established a stable set of pathological qualities that truly distinguishes itself as a separate and significant entity.

COMPLICATIONS: -

 Compilations from various case reports reveal the following common characteristics:

• Appears "bubbly" in nature.
• Polarized, unipolar in structures.
• Peripheral vasculature.
• Radial arrangement as a pseudorosette.
• Immunoreactive for GFAP and vimentin (supports astrocytic origin).
• Lacks "true rosette" architectures.
• Lacks structural cohesiveness.
• Prominent pseudopapillae formations.
• Localization mostly in cerebral hemispheres.
• Nodular, non-invasive growths.
• Strong, associative vasculature in other parts of the body.
• Tissue fibrosis prominence.
• High likelihood of vascular hyalinization.
• Low likelihood to metastasize toward other regions of the brain.

HOMEOPATHIC MANAGEMENT: -

The medicines that can be thought of use are:-

• Calcarea carb
• Calcarea flourica
• Calcarea phos
• Conium mac
• Cuprum met
• Helleborus niger
• Kali iod
• Lycopodium
• Ruta Graveolens
• Thuja occ
• Tuberculinum.
