THE BRAIN TUMOR WITH THE ONSET OF SYMPTOMS SIMILAR TO THOSE OF FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGICAL SYMPTOM DISORDER, A CASE REPORT

Brain tumor with post-stress symptoms is considered as a rare case. The diagnostic methods of brain tumor are clinical examinations, CT scan, and MRI, and if it is not treated, it will lead to the patient's death. The best treatment method of brain tumor is brain surgery. In the present research, the brain tumor was studied when the post-stress symptoms in a special case started to appear. The patient is a 48-year-old man suffering from spasm in the left side limbs after an argument. In the patient's brain CT scan, a lesion was observed in the right frontal lobe, and in the patient's brain MRI, it was seen in the right frontal. Having been diagnosed with tumor, the patient was referred to a surgeon. Given the findings of the present study, one can assert that the specialists must not overlook patients referring to them with functional neurologic symptoms, and all the symptoms need to be studied thoroughly; if brain tumors are diagnosed early enough, they can be treated through surgery, and their widespread complications can be prevented.
