METHODS
Patients who had undergone therapeutic neuroendoscopy between 2005 and 2009 were included in
Effective treatment for pediatric embryonal brain tumors includes dose-intensive multiagent chemotherapy (DIMAC) followed by high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell rescue (HDCSCR). Use of repeated cycles of DIMAC including high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) without HDCSCR has not been OBJECTIVE
