A brain metastasis is a cancer that has metastasized (spread) to the brain from another location in the body and is therefore considered a secondary brain tumor. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The metastasis typically shares a cancer cell type with the original site of the cancer. [ 3 ]

Mometasone, also known as mometasone furoate, is a steroid (specifically, a glucocorticoid) medication used to treat certain skin conditions, hay fever, and asthma. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Specifically it is used to prevent rather than treat asthma attacks. [ 10 ]

Medulloblastoma is a common type of primary brain cancer in children. It originates in the part of the brain that is towards the back and the bottom, on the floor of the skull, in the cerebellum, or posterior fossa. [3] The brain is divided into two main parts, the larger cerebrum on top and the smaller cerebellum below towards the
The methasones (or metasones) are a class of corticosteroids [1] which are generally used in dermatology.They are defined by substitution with a methyl group at the C16α or C16β position of the pregnane steroid nucleus.
2-Furoyl chloride is an acyl chloride of furan.It takes the form of a corrosive liquid, which is more irritating to the eyes than benzoyl chloride. [1] 2-Furoyl chloride is a useful pharmaceutical intermediate and is used in the synthesis of mometasone furoate, an antiinflammatory prodrug used in the treatment of skin disorders, hay fever and asthma.
Although anaplastic meningioma has higher chances of distant metastasis than the other two types, the overall incidence of meningioma metastasis is only 0.18%; which is considered rare. [26] Even if, by general rule, neoplasms of the nervous system (brain tumors) cannot metastasize into the body because of the blood–brain barrier , anaplastic ...
