Brain cancer is a disease of the brain in which cancer cells (malignant cells) arise in the brain tissue.

Tumors composed of cancer cells are called malignant tumors, and those composed of mainly non-cancerous cells are called benign tumors. Cancer cells that develop from brain tissue are called primary brain tumors while tumor...more
