Oncology of CNS Tumors

Jörg-Christian Tonn (Editor), Manfred Westphal (Editor), J. T. Rutka (Editor)
Tumor entities that are treated differently in children and adults are included both in the pediatric neuro-oncology section and in the general section. Entities that typically occur only in the child and adolescent are found in the pediatric section in order to avoid redundancies.
