      When considering only malignant brain and ONS tumors, approximately 80% are gliomas. Meningiomas, the most common ONS tumor in adults, arise from the meninges, which are tissues that surround the outer part of the spinal cord and brain. They account for about 33% of all (malignant and non-malignant) primary brain and ONS tumors reported in adults.

      Malignant tumors are cancer. Cancer cells can invade and damage nearby tissue and organs by breaking away from a malignant tumor and entering the bloodstream or the lymphatic system. This process is called metastasis. 3. A. D. A tumor is always cancerous. Note: Tumors can either be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancer). 4. A. D

      Brain tumors are a collection of space occupying growth within normal brain tissue. In general, tumors may be benign or malignant, depending on aggressiveness and extent of growth. In the brain however, any mass may potentially prove to be fatal. Brain tumors belong to one of three types: A) origination in brain tissue, B) within the skull ...

      Primary malignant brain tumors represent 2.4 percent of all deaths due to cancer in the U.S. However, nearly half of all primary brain tumors are benign and can be successfully treated. An additional 150-200,000 individuals are diagnosed with metastatic brain tumors.
