Cellphones also did not increase the risk of tumors outside the brain, specifically pituitary tumors and salivary gland tumors in adults, nor did they increase the risk of brain cancer in children.
The review looked at cancers of the brain in adults and children, as well as cancer of the pituitary gland, salivary glands and leukemia, and risks linked to mobile phone use, base stations, or ...
There is no evidence that using mobile phones causes brain cancer, pituitary cancers, or leukemia in adults and children, a new review by the World Health Organization finds.
Hardell's research on cell phones and cancer concluded that long-term mobile phone use is associated with an increased risk of acoustic neuroma and glioma. [4] [5] He has said that children should be banned from using cell phones except in emergencies, as he feels the risk of cancer is greater in people who begin using mobile phones before the age of 20.

In 2018 the Ramazzini Cancer Research Institute study of cell phone radiation and cancer published its results and conclusion that 'The RI findings on far field exposure to RFR are consistent with and reinforce the results of the NTP study on near field exposure, as both reported an increase in the incidence of tumors of the brain and heart in ...
Mobile phones continue to become more multifunctional and sophisticated, which exacerbates the problem. [47] In 2014 the BBC reported concerns from opticians regarding blue-violet light emitted by cell phone screens, that it may be potentially hazardous to the eye and long term it may possibly increase the risk of macular degeneration. [48]
Experts explain if cell phones cause brain cancer. After a WHO-commissioned report, oncologists weigh in on cell phone radiation’s effects on the human body.
That means that there "could be some risk" of carcinogenicity, so additional research into the long-term, heavy use of mobile phones needs to be conducted. [31] The WHO concluded in 2014 that "A large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse ...
