Brain tumor

A brain tumor occurs when abnormal cells form within the brain.There are two main types of tumors: cancerous (malignant) tumors and benign tumors.Cancerous tumors can be divided into primary tumors, which start within the brain, and secondary tumors, which have spread from elsewhere, known as brain metastasis tumors.All types of brain tumors may produce symptoms that vary depending on the part of the brain involved.These symptoms may include headaches, seizures, problems with vision, vomiting and mental changes.The headache is classically worse in the morning and goes away with vomiting. Other symptoms may include difficulty walking, speaking or with sensations.As the disease progresses, unconsciousness may occur.
