Tumors
20% of all childhood cancers are CNS tumors
70% of childhood tumors arise in the posterior fossa
70% of adult tumors arise in cerebral hemispheres, supratentorial
Rarely metastasize outside of the CNSSymptoms – seizures, headaches, focal
neurological deficits, hydrocephalus, ataxia

GliomasAstrocytomasInfiltrating vs non-infiltrating (pilocytic)
Grade I – pilocytic – often cysticGrade II – diffuse astrocytomaGrade III – anaplastic astrocytomaGrade IV – glioblastoma (pseudopalisading)
OligodendrogliomasWhite matterWell-circumscribed, better prognosis
EpendymomasNF2, ependyma-lined ventricular systemPerivascular pseudorosettes
SubepndymomasChoroid plexus papillomas/ carcinomasColloid Cyst of third ventricle

Medulloblastoma
Poorly differentiated
Well-circumscribed
Midline of the cerebellum
Desmoplastic variant
Drop metastases – cauda equina

Meningiomas
Attached to the dura
Usually benign
En plaque
Psammoma bodies
Atypical
Anaplastic

Metastatic
¼ to ½ of intra-cranial tumors in hospitalized patients
Five most commonLungBreastMelanomaKidneyGI

Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors
Schwannoma
Neural crest-derived Schwann cell
Acoustic neuroma – actually vestibular
Neurofibroma
Cutaneous
Peripheral nerve – solitary or plexiform
Malignant peripheral sheath tumors

Familial Tumor SyndromesNeurofibromatosis Type I – AD, Lisch nodules, café au lait spots
Neurofibromatosis Type II – AD, 8th nerve schannomas and multiple meningiomas
Tuberous Sclerosis – AD, hamartomas ( cortical tubers) and benign neoplasms of the brain; seizures; liver, kidney, pancreas cysts; angifibromas, shagreen patches, ash-leaf spots, subungal fibromas
Von Hippel – Lindau Disease – AD, hemangioblastomas (cerebellum and retina); cysts of liver, pancreas, kidney; renal cell carcinoma, pheochromocytomas
