This may be related to the immaturity of the cenhal nervous system tissue and a high incidence of histologically undifferentiated tumors. To improve the treatment results, more accurate prenatal diagnosis, total neurosurgical resection and reduced oncological therapy morbidity should be achieved. Effective psychomotor development stimulation, motivation and cooperation of the patient's family and even multidisciplinary collaborationo f medical expertsi s necessaryto improve therapeutic outcomes. |
