Brain cancer

Brain cancer is the most common cancer in children after leukemia. However, it is still more frequently diagnosed in adults as patients get older. Brain tumors can also be the result of metastases from other cancers, such as lung cancer or breast cancer, but these metastases are not considered ‘primary’ brain cancer.
