    Author: Ahmad S, Roberts GJ, Lucas VS, Barrett AW, Harkness W.
    Journal: J Oral Pathol Med; 2002 Apr; 31(4):244-5. PubMed ID: 12076330.
    Abstract:
    Medulloblastoma is an infratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumour. It is the most commonly occurring brain tumour of childhood, accounting for 15-20% of all paediatric tumours. Extracranial metastasis is rare, but may involve the skeleton. Jaw lesions, however, have never been described. A case is reported of metastases of a medulloblastoma to the jaw including the dental pulp.
