benign

17
Q

This disease onset on few week to several months and the onset of symptoms evolves.

A

Neoplastic Diseases

18
Q

The fastest onset in neoplastic diseases is?

A

3-4 weeks

19
Q

This type of disease is slow deterioration of neurons or long period of time with normal function of neurons.

A

Degenerative disease

20
Q

This disease onsets to several years (continuous deterioration) and may not recognize the symptoms are taking place.

A

Degenerative Disease

21
Q

This type of disease is that the nervous system is not the primary area of the disease.

A

Metabolic Disease

22
Q

The nervous system affected secondarily

A

Metabolic Disease

23
Q

Cardiopulmonary arrest (problem is with the cardiac system) but when the time comes, blood does not flow into the brain which means loss of cortical function. What type of disease is this?

A

Metabolic Disease

24
Q

The nervous system is accidentally involved from a disease in another organ system.

A

Metabolic Disease

25
Q

This type of disease is due to an abnormality in the development of the nervous system.

A

Developmental/Congenital Disease

26
Q

Failure of the neural tube to close. What type of disease is this?

A

Developmental/ Congenital Disease

27
Q

This type of disease is inborn or inherited.

A

Developmental/Congenital Disease

28
Q

Genetic abnormalities is an example of what disease?

A

Developmental/Congenital Disease

29
Q

This type of disease is born without any deficit but as the child grows, clinical symptoms starts to appear.

A

Developmental/Congenital Disease

30
Q

This type of disease is the easiest.

A

Traumatic Diseases

31
Q

This type of disease is injury to the nervous system from an external force.

A

Traumatic Diseases

32
Q

This type of disease is due to destruction of myelin and no common presentation.

A

Demyelinated Disease

33
Q

This type of disease can evolve from weeks to months and is diagnosed by exclusion.

A

Demyelinated Disease
