Brain tumors are of many types, both benign and malignant. The exact cause in many patients is not known. Some are arising originally in the brain (primary brain tumors) while others are secondaries from a cancer present elsewhere in the body (metastasis). There are many types of brain tumors based on the area where it is present: Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, Occipital, cerebellar, thalamic, hypothalamic, medullary, Cerebello-pontine (CP angle) etc.
Depending on where the tumor is present or how big it is, and how quickly it grows, brain tumors may have different symptoms: Headache, dizziness, paralysis, speech disturbances, vision problems, hormonal problems, facial paralysis, unconsciousness, convulsions (seizures or fits), loss of balance etc
Brain tumors are diagnosed by MRI or CT scan. Surgery and excision is main treatment of brain tumour. Occasionally brain tumours may need to be treated with radiation or chemotherapy. Benign tumours generally have good prognosis. Malignant tumours can also have a good prognosis depending on the stage.
