Occipital lobe tumor

The occipital lobe is small and there are fewer tumors that occur solely in the occipital lobe. Occipital tumors often involve both the parietal and posterior temporal lobes. The most common tumor is glioma, which accounts for about 1.46% of intracranial gliomas; meningiomas account for about 0.74% of intracranial meningiomas; other tumors are rare. In terms of physiological functions, the occipital lobe is the most advanced visual analyzer, the so-called ldquo; visual center rdquo ;. The main clinical manifestations of occipital tumors are visual impairments.
