yes, metastatic brain tumors can be deadly if not treated properly.
Metastatic SOL's or tumors found in the brain are same as brain cancer. Metastatic tumors are one of the most common type of tumors found in the brain.
There are two types of brain tumors: primary brain tumors that originate in the brain and metastatic (secondary) brain tumors that originate from cancer cells that have migrated from other parts of the body.

It is cancer tumors that has spread to the lungs
Meningitis, encephalitis, metastatic tumors, syphilis, bleeding in the brain and spinal cord, multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barre syndrome.
Unfortunately, only about 5% of patients with metastatic cancer (from primary tumors in the colon or rectum) fall into this group.
Pleural tumors are divided into two classifications: primary (mesothelioma), or metastatic (arising from cancer sites elsewhere in the body).
The most common primary brain tumors include gliomas such as astrocytomas, ependymomas, and oligodendrogliomas
Malignant brain tumors do not have distinct borders
A glioblastoma multiforma tumor ("glioblastoma") is the fastest spreading cancer of the brain and is also the most deadly. As its name suggests, it affects glial cells - mostly astrocytes - so a glioblastoma can develop and metastasize anywhere in the brain
Radiation also is used in the treatment of patients with metastatic disease. It is particularly useful in shrinking metastatic colon cancer to the brain.
Gliomas are the most prevalent primary brain tumors
