*A brain ~~tumor occurs when abnormal cells form within the~~ brain.

'''Includes'''

*~~There are two main types~~ of ~~tumors: malignant or cancerous tumors and benign tumors.~~

* Anaplastic astrocytoma of brain

**~~Cancerous tumors can be divided into primary tumors that start within~~ the ~~brain~~, ~~and secondary tumors that have spread from somewhere else~~, ~~known as~~ brain ~~metastasis tumors.~~

* Anaplastic glioma of brain

* Astrocytoma of brain

* Cancer of brain, ependymoma

* Cancer of brain, glioblastoma

* Cancer of brain, glioblastoma multiforme

* Cancer of brain, oligodendroglioma*

* Malignant neurofibramotosis of the CNS, combine with [[Brain, congenital malformation]] or [[Spinal cord, congenital malformation NOS]]

* Malignant germ cell tumor of brain

~~SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS~~:

'''Excludes'''

*Benign brain tumors: code them as [[Central nervous system NOS, benign neoplasm]]

*The signs and symptoms of brain tumors are broad, and generally correspond to the area of the brain that they are located in. The brain is divided into 4 lobes, and each lobe or area has its own function. A tumor in any of these lobes may affect the area's performance. The location of the tumor is often linked to the symptoms experienced but each person may experience something different.

**Frontal lobe tumors may contribute to poor reasoning, inappropriate social behavior, personality changes, poor planning, lower inhibition, and decreased production of speech (Broca's area).

**Temporal lobe: Tumors in this lobe may contribute to poor memory, loss of hearing, difficulty in language comprehension (Wernicke's area).

**Parietal lobe: Tumors here may result in poor interpretation of languages, decreased sense of touch and pain, and poor spatial and visual perception.

**Occipital lobe: Damage to this lobe may result in poor or loss of vision.

**Cerebellum: Tumors in this area may cause poor balance, muscle movement, and posture.

**Brain stem: Tumors on this can affect blood pressure, swallowing, and heartbeat.
