📋Overview
Brain Tumors in Adults represent a diverse group of conditions involving the development of abnormal cell masses within the brain tissue or its surrounding structures. These tumors are categorized as primary when they begin in the brain and secondary, or metastatic, when they develop from cancer cells that have traveled from different organs.
Clinical presentations vary based on the specific type of tumor and its exact location, influencing how the growth interacts with neurological pathways. This classification includes a range of cell behaviors, from slow-growing masses to more aggressive types that can affect various functional areas of the central nervous system.
