Item description

A cancerous or non-cancerous mass or growth of abnormal cells in the brain.
Tumors can start in the brain, or cancer elsewhere in the body can spread to the brain. The risk for most types of brain tumors increases with age.
Symptoms include new or increasingly strong headaches, blurred vision, weakness of limbs, loss of balance, confusion and seizures. In some cases, there may be no symptoms.

The treatment of a brain tumor depends on:

the type of tumor
the size of the tumor
the location of the tumor
your general health
The most common treatment for malignant brain tumors is surgery. The goal is to remove as much of the cancer as possible without causing damage to the healthy parts of the brain.

While the location of some tumors allows for safe removal, other tumors may be located in an area that limits how much of the tumor can be removed. Even partial removal of brain cancer can be beneficial.Surgery can be combined with other treatments, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

Physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy can help you recover after neurosurgery.
