It depends on what type of tumor it is. Some common tumors are left alone because the risks of surgery would be greater than leaving the tumor there. Most tumors are benign and cause few problems. Malignancies would have to be removed.

Does brain tumor cause death?
There are two main ways to die of a brain tumor... (that I can think of off the top of my head) which are: 1) metastasis, 2) brain damage/death. Cancer of the brain can break apart and bits can travel to other areas of the body (depending upon which type of brain tumor) and set up camp there... which can just eat away at the body until the body either starves to death in some area, or there is an organ failure of some kind. The second way is that a brain tumor encroaches upon an important area of the brain, and so that part of the brain stops functioning... if it is the part that controls the lungs, then the body dies. Also, as the cancer gets bigger it smashes the rest of the brain and any part of the brain can just give up at any time, and then the body dies.
