The brain is made up of many different types of cells (e.g. neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymal cells). Cancers occur when one type of cell transforms from its normal characteristics and grows and multiplies in an abnormal way. Brain and spinal cord tumors are abnormal growths of tissue found inside the skull or the bony spinal column, which are the primary components of the central nervous system (CNS).
