Astrocytomas are brain tumors that represent about half of all primary brain and spinal cord tumors. These neoplasms develop from the disordered growth of glial cells, astrocytes, which constitute part of the brain's supporting tissue. They occur less frequently in the spinal cord. People of all ages can develop astrocytomas, but this pathology is more prevalent in adults, especially middle-aged men. There are different types of astrocytomas, and these lesions are classified into several categories according to their appearance under a microscope and location. This classification is quite common and pertinent, because the appearance of an astrocytoma often predicts its behavior and, therefore, a patient's prognosis. Patients diagnosed and treated early have more effective responses to treatment, improving the individual's quality of life. This study aimed to correlate frontal astrocytoma with behavioral changes in major depressive disorder.
