    Author(s): Betty Wood*

    Brain Tumour is growth of abnormal mass of cells which harms other neighbouring cells in the brain and leads to Brain Cancer in humans. Collection of neoplasms leads to tumour formation. Mostly, brain tumour arises from intracranial tissues and meninges. Tumours which are grown in brain itself are called Primary Brain Tumours whereas those which arouse in other parts of body but got into the brain are called Metastatic Brain Tumour.

Some of the Benign Tumour are as follows: Chordomas, Craniopharyngiomas, Gangliocytomas, Meningiomas, Pineocytomas, Pituitary adenomas, Schwannomas and Acoustic neuromas. Malignant Tumour includes: Gliomas (the most deadly brain tumours). .. View more»
