Talk:Emlyn Hughes

Brain tumour nomenclature
Emlyn had a brain tumour. Not brain cancer because the primary tumour was first found in the brain. A tumour remains a tumour in name until it mastesizes (or buds off) and spreads to new tisses. Then it, sadly, becomes the disease named - cancer.

Because the brain is enclosed in a sack the a primary in the brain cannot spread to new tissues or organs (due to the brain/blood barrier). To call it cancer in the brain means that it is secondary tumour that has budded off from a primary tumour which is elsewhere in the body. Ultimately reaching the brain area. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.151.93.189 (talk) 22:07, 21 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Brain tumours can be benign or malignant - as you can see from the article. Jim Michael (talk) 23:59, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
