Special features of epithelial tumors
Benign and malignant epithelial tumors are the most common in adults. Epithelial cells grow as cohesive groups Malignancy can be diagnosed by invasion through tissue layers -basement membrane, muscularis mucosae
Benign epithelial tumors
2 types according to the epithelium

low-grade lesions (low mitotic rate, cellular uniformity, and slow growth) may infiltrate large regions of the brain
The anatomic site of the neoplasm - lethal consequences irrespective of histologic classification
