What are the symptoms of glial hyperplasia?

For glial hyperplasia caused by congenital development, especially in the hippocampus and uncus areas, it often leads to temporal lobe epilepsy, seizures, and sometimes accompanied by symptoms such as olfactory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, and auditory hallucinations. For such lesions, it is necessary to use thin-layer magnetic resonance scanning of the hippocampus and long-term EEG monitoring to determine the location of the epileptogenic focus. If necessary, surgical resection of the glial hyperplasia and the diseased hippocampus area can be performed to achieve the purpose of controlling epilepsy.

The most effective treatment for glial hyperplasia is surgical treatment, which should be evaluated based on the specific conditions of the patient. Surgical treatment can be considered if the patient meets the surgical criteria. Some patients require conservative treatment, the most common method is to take some drugs to control the progression of the disease. It should be noted that during drug treatment, patients should adjust their diet, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and reduce the intake of salty or sweet foods to prevent exacerbation of glial hyperplasia. Patients should eat more foods that are easy to digest and absorb, eat more fruits and vegetables, and pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion. They should take medication on time as prescribed by the doctor and regularly visit the hospital to understand the changes in their condition.
