Astrocytomas are star-shaped brain tumours which commonly affect both children and adults. They are difficult to treat as surgery tends to remove the central portion, leaving the points of the 'star" behind. However, recent advances in their treatment have been considerable, and this book draws together experts from both the clinical and research realms to provide a comprehensive study of their formation and management.
