Benign neoplasm: other specified parts of central nervous system - what does this mean
Benign neoplasm of other specified parts of the central nervous system is a condition in which an abnormal mass of tissue forms in the brain or spinal cord. this mass is usually a non-cancerous tumor that can cause neurological problems due to its size or location. symptoms can include headache, seizures, vision changes, weakness, and changes in behavior. diagnosis is made through imaging studies such as an mri or ct scan. treatment may involve surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy, depending on the size and location of the tumor.
What happens during the disease - benign neoplasm: other specified parts of central nervous system
Benign neoplasm of the central nervous system is caused by the abnormal growth of cells in the brain or spinal cord. this abnormal growth can be caused by genetic mutations, exposure to certain environmental factors, or a combination of both. these mutations can lead to the formation of abnormal cells which can then grow and divide uncontrollably, resulting in a benign tumor.
