Neuro-oncology is the study of brain and spinal cord neoplasms, many of that are very dangerous and life-threatening astrocytoma, glioma, glioblastoma multiforme, ependymoma, pontine brain tumour, and brain stem tumors are among the many examples of these. Among the malignant brain cancers, gliomas of the brainstem and pons, glioblastoma multiforme, and high-grade astrocytoma are among the worstA tumor occurs once abnormal cells form inside the brain.There are 2 main varieties of tumors: cancerous (malignant) tumors and benign (non-cancerous) tumors.Cancerous tumors may be divided into primary tumors, that start inside the brain, and secondary tumors, that have spread from elsewhere, called brain metastasis tumors.
