Chemotheraphy of Medulloblastoma
Tumori Journal, 1968A combination of Vincristine, Cyclophosphamide and intrathecal Methotrexate has proved effective in obtaining a remission of a recurrent medulloblastoma metastatized to the spinal cord of a 5 years old boy. The remission has been lasting 4 months, before treatment switched again to radiotherapy.

A 9-day-old female presented with a large infra- and supratentorial medulloblastoma was treated by surgery, irradiation and chemotherapy. The infant suffered from vomit a few days after birth. She was hospitalized shortly thereafter, when head enlargement was noted. A CT scan taken on admission disclosed a large mass lesion in the cerebellum, extending

Medulloblastoma is the most common infratentorial malignant tumour under 15 years of age. In recent protocols, the patients are stratified for treatment in standard risk or high risk, according to the clinical variables as age, localized or disseminated disease, degree of surgical resection and more recently expected biological behaviour based on ...

The ultrastructure of medulloblastomas
Acta Neuropathologica, 19709 medulloblastomas were investigated by electron microscopy. They all showed a rather unique histological and cytological structure. The cells were differently shaped, had in general many cytoplasmic processes and only few organells. Special differentiations which would have made tumour elements look like glial or neural cells were not observed when ...

MEDULLOBLASTOMA OF THE CEREBELLUM
Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1949THE RESULTS of treatment of medulloblastoma of the cerebellum as reported in the literature have been uniformly depressing. 1 When Bailey and Cushing first segregated this neoplasm from the general group of gliomas, the average life expectancy for patients treated by operation alone was about seven months; the addition of postoperative irradiation ...

In children medulloblastoma is a commonly encountered posterior fossa midline tumour in which cystic degeneration is not uncommon. A cystic medulloblastoma without solid component has, however, not been described. We report a 12-year-old boy with a posterior fossa midline cystic lesion on CT with surgical and histological confirmation of the diagnosis.

Chemotherapy of medulloblastoma
Child's Nervous System, 1999Recent advances in neurosurgical techniques and diagnostic imaging capabilities have facilitated gross total resection and accurate staging of disease extent in a greater proportion of patients. The addition of chemotherapy to surgery and craniospinal radiation has improved the outcome of patients diagnosed with medulloblastoma.

Among all the childhood central nervous system tumours, medulloblastoma and other neuroectodermal tumours account for 16-25% of cases. The causative factors of medulloblastoma/PNET have not been well established. It is more frequent in boys than in girl and in children than in adults.

ABSTRACT Brain tumors are the most common solid tumor malignancies in childhood, and among them, medulloblastoma occurs with the greatest frequency. Because medulloblastomas occur in the posterior fossa, the presenting symptoms often are vague complaints and diagnosis may be delayed.
