Apart from neurologic examination, diagnostic approaches include Computed Tomography (CT) scan, MRI and biopsy. </p><p>Treatment strategies, determined by a variety of factors, include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and indicative therapy. This mini-review summarizes brain tumor biology as regards its classification, grading, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnostic tools and treatment modalities.</p>
