Abstract
Childhood brain tumors are the most common pediatric solid tumors, it is the second leading cause of cancer death after leukemia. Extremely high levels of curability have been achieved, particularly for medulloblastoma, in developed countries, however, in sub-Saharan Africa, the prognosis for childhood brain tumours remains poor.
In the paediatric haematology and oncology department of the National Oncology Centre (CNO), a reference structure at the national level for the management of childhood cancer, 17 cases of primary pediatric brain tumors were recorded, This retrospective research work aimed to describe the epidemiological profile of childhood brain tumors in Mauritania.
Despite satisfactory access to conventional therapeutic means for brain tumors at the level of the capital's hospitals, the prognosis of this cancer remains poor in children.
