Overview
When evaluating a patient for subependymal giant cell astrocytoma, you should take a detailed history of the presenting symptom (onset, duration, and progression), other associated symptoms, and a thorough family and past medical history review. Other specific areas of focus when obtaining the history include review of common associated conditions such as tuberous sclerosis.[1] Symptoms of subependymal giant cell astrocytoma include headache, seizures, vision loss, changes in speech, weakness in limbs, and sensory loss.[2][3][4]
History
When evaluating a patient for subependymal giant cell astrocytoma, you should take a detailed history of the presenting symptom (onset, duration, and progression), other associated symptoms, and a thorough family and past medical history review. Other specific areas of focus when obtaining the history include:[1]
- Review of common associated conditions such as tuberous sclerosis.
Symptoms
Majority of the symptoms experienced by patients with subependymal giant cell astrocytoma are due to obstruction of the foramen of monroe. Symptoms of subependymal giant cell astrocytoma include:[2][3][4][5]
- Headache
- Seizures
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diplopia
- Vision loss
- Changes in speech
