10 Types of Brain Tumors

Lymphoma

Lymphomas are those cancerous cells that often begin in lymphocytes, a form of white blood cells. While they can be found in many body parts, the central nervous system of your brain is where they have the highest level of concentration. This form is more common in those with compromised immune systems, such as HIV/AIDs. Lymphomas tend to grow quickly and would be difficult to treat. The most common treatment option is chemotherapy.
