'''[[w:Astrocytoma]]s''' are a type of [[w:brain tumor]]. They originate in a particular kind of glial cells, star-shaped brain cells in the [[w:cerebrum]] called [[w:astrocyte]]s. This type of tumor does not usually spread outside the brain and spinal cord and it does not usually affect other organs. Astrocytomas are the most common [[w:glioma]] and can occur in most parts of the brain and occasionally in the spinal cord. (Wikipedia on 2020-07-16) | |||
