Brainstem tumors in children: a monocentric series in the light of genetic and bio-molecular progress in pediatric neuro-oncology.

Introduction: Brainstem tumors represent a challenge. Their management and prognosis vary according to anatomopathological findings and genetic and bio-molecular fingerprints. We present our experience with pediatric brainstem tumors.

Posterior fossa ependymoma in children: A long-term single-center experience.

Introduction: Ependymomas in the posterior fossa have poor prognosis. This study reports a single-center pediatric series, focusing on the value of surgical resection.

Material And Methods: A single-center retrospective study included all patients operated on by the senior author (CM) for posterior fossa ependymoma from 2002 to 2018.
