Anaplastic astrocytoma is a malignant brain tumor. It develops from certain star-shaped brain cells called astrocytes. The exact cause of anaplastic astrocytoma is still unknown, but factors like genetics, immune system abnormalities, and exposure to ultraviolet rays may be associated with the tumor. Anaplastic astrocytomas are grade III tumors that grow in size and spread to surrounding tissues. Early symptoms of ascites may include headaches, blurred vision, seizures, memory loss, nausea, and vomiting. Treatment involves surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and electrotherapy.
