Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glioblastoma is a highly malignant brain tumor that develops from astrocytes, a type of glial cell. It is aggressive and difficult to treat, with a poor prognosis for most patients. Meningioma and teratoma are also types of brain tumors but they are generally less malignant than glioblastoma. Epidural and subdural hematomas are not brain tumors; they are types of bleeding in the brain that can result from head injury.
