Objectives: to analyse the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of pediatric
medulloblastoma in patients followed in the study centre.
Material and methods: a retrospective descriptive study of patients diagnosed with
medulloblastoma at the Hospital General Universitario de Alicante Dr. Balmis (HGUDB)
from 1 January 1995 to 31 January 2023 has been carried out.
Results: nineteen patients were included. The average age was 7.1 ± 3.3 years.
Headache was present at diagnosis in 84.2% of the patients, with a median symptom
presentation of 30 days (range 16.25-60 days) and a predominant location in the IV
ventricle. Standard risk included 57.9% of patients and the most frequent histological
subtype was classical medulloblastoma (63.2%). Total/subtotal surgical resection was
achieved in 15 patients and 9 required ventriculoperitoneal shunt implantation.
Adjuvant treatment in all of them consisted of chemotherapy (QT) and radiotherapy (RT)
except for one patient < 3 years who did not receive RT. Endocrine alterations were the
sequelae found in the largest number of cases (36.8%). Survival analysis showed a
median event-free survival (EFS) of 5 years (range: 0-16 years) and overall survival (OS)
of 76 ± 21% and 69.7 ± 22.3% at 3 and 5 years, respectively. Univariate analysis showed statistically significant results for risk group (p = 0.04) and extent of disease (p = 0.04),
with no statistical significance in multivariate analysis.
Conclusions: Long-term follow-up is essential to assess physical and psychological
sequelae. Further studies are needed to better understand the relationship between
molecular markers and prognosis, with progress focusing on tailoring treatments
according to the molecular classification of the tumour. Although evolving protocols and
treatments have provided improved survival, medulloblastoma often continues to have
a poor prognosis.
