Neurogenic tumors are abnormal growths that arise from the cells of the nervous system, particularly from nerve tissue. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and may occur in various locations, including the spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and brain. Common types include schwannomas and neurofibromas. Symptoms of neurogenic tumors can vary based on their size and location, potentially causing pain, numbness, or weakness. Diagnosis typically involves imaging techniques like MRI or CT scans, and treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, or observation, depending on the tumor's characteristics and impact on the patient.
