A recent study conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia, investigated the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in patients with central nervous system (CNS) tumors. The study found that patients with spinal tumors had a higher incidence of psychiatric disorders compared to those with intracranial tumors. The most common psychiatric disorder observed was adjustment disorder. The study also identified several risk factors for psychiatric disorders in CNS tumor patients, including dysphagia, incontinence, pain, cognitive dysfunction, and seizures. The researchers emphasized the importance of screening and comprehensive psychiatric evaluations in these patients, as psychiatric symptoms can significantly impact their quality of life and treatment outcomes.
