Being diagnosed with a brain tumor could be one of the most confusing and scary experiences a person can experience. As it is one of our most important organs, it can cause fear and hopelessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, in Mexico there is a place that focuses exclusively on treating patients with this condition and aims to provide the best care possible. This is the Brain Tumor Center<\/a> at TecSalud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe want to give patients that confidence that they will be cared for by a team of professional experts committed to their recovery,\u201d says Enrique Caro<\/a>, neurosurgeon and director of the center, in an interview with TecScience<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Brain tumors are an excessive and uncontrolled accumulation of aberrant cells that accumulate in or near the brain, including those located in the brain, spine, or peripheral nerves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In general, there are two main types: benign and malignant. Malignant ones are also known as brain cancer and contain cancer cells, are fast-growing, and invade different areas of the brain. Benign ones do not contain cancer cells and usually have a slow growth lasting for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Mexico, there are around 30,000 cases of brain tumors per year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
