    tumor forms on protective membranes of brain and spinal cord

    A meningioma is a type of tumor that forms on the meninges, which are the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. While most meningiomas are benign (non-cancerous), they can still cause significant health issues by pressing on the brain or spinal cord, leading to symptoms like headaches, seizures, or neurological deficits.
