description

We report a patient with a history of a previously treated medulloblastoma, now presenting with generalized osseous metastases. Currently there is a complete remission under continuous therapy with VP-16. Since the frequency of systemic metastases in patients with medulloblastoma is approximately 5%, we recommend a more extensive initial evaluation in these patients.
