Ependymoma

/ɛˌpɛndɪˈmoʊmə/ noun

Definition

A type of brain tumor that develops from the cells of the ependyma, most commonly found in children.

Etymology

From 'ependyma' plus the medical suffix '-oma' (meaning 'tumor'), created in modern medical terminology to name cancers originating from ependymal cells.

Kelly Says

Ependymomas are the most common brain tumor in children, and doctors are getting better at treating them by understanding how these cells normally work—a perfect example of how basic biology knowledge saves lives!
