    Abstract:
    In part I of this article, we reviewed the general aspects of childhood brain tumors. In part II, we present the most common neoplasms and their treatment. The quality of the surgical resection appears to be of first importance in the prognosis. Progress in radiotherapy and chemotherapy have contributed to the improvement of long-term results. However, they are responsible of late deleterious effects. Further progress in therapy must be assessed with in view a critical evaluation of the quality of life.
