A Detailed Overview of Brain Cancer
By Darrell D Price
Brain cancer tumors may originate in the brain (primary site) or they may metastasize to the brain from another site. Metastasized brain tumors have a poor prognosis because of the already advanced state of the cancer.
The human brain anatomy is complex system responsible for many body functions. Injury that causes damage, traumatic experiences, or brain tumors can greatly alter one's life.
Cancerous tumors that form in the brain (primary) tend to stay within the brain and not branch out to other organs. Their growth can take up the space needed by the healthy brain and cause many conditions, including hearing loss and stroke. The ratio is about 50/50 regarding the occurrence of metastasized and primary brain tumors. The leading cause cancer related death in people in people younger than 35.
Don't burn plastic such as plastic wrapping and containers in a bon fire or fireplace. The treatments are generally the same for other kinds of cancer and tumors. This has increased life expectancy for some kinds of brain tumors by fifty percent.
