Malignant brain neoplasm

A malignant brain neoplasm is a cancerous, rapidly growing mass of abnormal cells arising within or metastatic to the central nervous system tissues of the brain

It can affect pediatric and adult populations, developing primarily from glial cells, neuronal tissue, or meninges—such as in high-grade gliomas and medulloblastomas—or secondarily via hematogenous dissemination from distant primary malignancies like lung or breast cancers Clinically, their expansion within the rigid cranial vault produces vasogenic edema, elevated intracranial pressure, persistent headaches, seizures, and focal neurological deficits
