Abstract

Medulloblastoma is a highly malignant frequent paediatric brain tumor. It can be misdiagnosed for other diseases when symptoms are non-specific and neurological examination is normal during evaluation. Physicians must be vigilant not only of suggestive neurological status but also of non -specific symptoms that are persistence and recurring in nature.
