Three- and four-year cognitive outcome in children with noncortical brain tumors treated with whole-brain radiotherapy.

TL;DR: Cognitive function and school achievement were studied prospectively over 3 to 4 years in 19 children treated for brain tumors with whole‐brain radiotherapy and special education at follow‐up; 50% of the children over 7 years at diagnosis were receiving supplemental educational services.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic factors in childhood ependymomas.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the use of adjuvant chemotherapy with CCNU, vincristine, and cisplatinum does not improve progression-free survival in childhood ependymoma, and that the extent of surgical resection is a major determinant of outcome in this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Updated results of a pilot study of low dose craniospinal irradiation plus chemotherapy for children under five with cerebellar primitive neuroectodermal tumors (medulloblastoma)

TL;DR: Data suggest that medulloblastoma patients can be cured with chemotherapy and reduced doses of craniospinal irradiation and cis-platin-based chemotherapy, and growth velocities in very young children so treated are dramatically reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Choroid plexus carcinoma of childhood

TL;DR: Adjuvant therapy for children with choroid plexus carcinomas is of unproven benefit, and this must be considered when analyzing innovative treatment trials for such children, especially for those with totally resected tumors.
