Brain Tumors

A brain tumour is the mass or growth of the brain  abnormal cells. There are several different types of brain tumours. There are non-cancerous (benign) brain tumours and certain cancerous brain tumours (malignant). Brain tumours (primary brain tumours) can start in the brain or cancer can begin in other parts of the body and spread to the brain (secondary, or metastatic, brain tumors). How rapidly a brain tumour develops may differ considerably. The rate of growth as well as the location of a brain tumour determines how the function of the nervous system will be affected. Treatment options for brain tumours depend on the type of brain tumour they have, as well as its size and location. Brain tumours beginning with the glial cells are gliomas. Low-grade (slow growing) or high-grade gliomas may be (fast growing). The tumor's location is also very significant. In the brain and spinal cord, glioma is a form of tumour that occurs. In the gluey supporting cells (glial cells) surrounding nerve cells, gliomas begin and help them to operate. Glioma signs, prognosis, and treatment depend on the age of the person, the specific type of tumour, and where the tumour is within the brain.
