Abstract：
:Several studies suggest that the incidence of brain tumors is rising, an increase that cannot be accounted for by improved diagnostic abilities. Brain tumors can be subdivided according to their histology and location. When approached from this standpoint, survival statistics and treatment options can vary greatly. Understanding the pathology and classification of tumors assists in understanding treatment approaches and provides a knowledge base for education of patients and families.
