Abstract
Medulloblastoma is a highly malignant frequent paediatric brain tumor.
It can be misdiagnosed for other diseases when symptoms are non-specific
and neurological examination is normal during evaluation. Physicians
must be vigilant not only of suggestive neurological status but also of
non -specific symptoms that are persistence and recurring in nature.
