What is a Brain Tumor?

A mass of abnormal cells in the brain tissue, resulting from uncontrolled multiplication and accumulation, is known as a brain tumor. These tumors can be non-cancerous (benign) or cancerous (malignant) and may vary in shape and size. With 120 types accounting for a staggering 85-90% of all primary tumors of the nervous system, brain tumors have become a significant concern. They are the leading cause of solid cancer-related mortality in children under the age of 20.

What are the primary risk factors for developing a Brain Tumor?
  • Family history: accounts for approximately 5-10% of all cases
  • Age 
  • Chemical exposure: either at home or in the workplace
  • Radiation exposure: from medical treatments or due to nuclear fallout
  • No history of chickenpox
