Optimising Rehabilitation Strategies for Primary Central Nervous System Neoplasm-Related Neurological Deficits Using a Comprehensive Multimodality Approach Including Robotic Gloves Technology: A Comprehensive Case Report.
Curēus 2024 March
This case study examines the rehabilitation strategy for a 51-year-old farmer with primary neoplasm of the central nervous system (CNS)-related hemiparesis, balance issues, and cognitive impairment. Primary neoplasm of the CNS is a rare type of cancer that affects the brain, spinal cord, and other parts of the CNS. Hemiparesis, which is weakness on one side of the body, is a common symptom of primary neoplasm of the CNS. The tumour can cause inflammation and swelling in the brain, which can further contribute to weakness. Symptoms include headaches, confusion, seizures, and changes in vision or speech. The patient underwent surgical excision, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy but faced challenges in physiotherapy. The patient's initial assessment revealed asymmetries and impairments on the right side, including muscle weakness, flexor synergy, trunk imbalance, gait abnormalities, and cognitive impairment. A tailored physiotherapy protocol was implemented, focusing on improving muscle strength, synergy patterns, balance, gait, motor control, speech, and cognitive function. Innovative robotic gloves technology was incorporated to enhance hand functionality. This case study contributes to the growing body of evidence supporting the effectiveness of comprehensive rehabilitation strategies, including innovative technologies, in optimising recovery for individuals with CNS lymphoma-related neurological deficits. Further research and exploration could further validate their benefits and enhance the overall rehabilitation journey for such patients.
