Astrocytoma is a type of brain tumor that originates from astrocytes, star-shaped glial cells that support nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Astrocytomas vary in grade, from low-grade (slow-growing) to high-grade (fast-growing and more aggressive, like glioblastoma). Symptoms depend on the tumor's location and may include headaches, seizures, neurological deficits, and changes in behavior. Treatment usually involves a combination of surgery to remove the tumor, radiation therapy, and sometimes chemotherapy, especially for higher-grade astrocytomas.
