    Notes: Summary A considerable number of high risk brain tumours require an interdisciplinary approach with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy rather than one single therapeutic regimen. Children with a medulloblastoma must be subdivided into four different risk groups depending on the size of the tumour, on the age of the child and on cerebral spinal fluid cytology findings. The treatment protocol for ependymomas depends on the location of the tumour and on histological grading. Pineal region tumours can be successfully removed; further therapy depends on the type of the tumour. Children with hemispheric high grade astrocytomas gain substantially from local radiation therapy. The GPO (Gesellschaft für Pädiatrische Onkologie) has most recently taken the initiative to found a pediatric neuro-oncology working group in order to establish and to evaluate different treatment modalities.

    Notes: Abstract By means of polygraphic sleep recording, the sleep apnea profile with respect to the number and duration of inactive, obstructive and mixed apneic episodes as well as periodic breathing has been investigated in infants born preterm at 40, 52 and 64 weeks conceptional age and compared to that of term infants. At 40 weeks preterm infants showed significantly more apnea and periodic breathing compared to term infants. The difference was essentially due to obstructive and mixed apnea in non-REM sleep. There was a sharp decrease in all apneic variables—inactive, obstructive and mixed apnea as well as of periodic breathing—at 52 weeks conceptional age in infants that were previously preterm. Both groups exhibited a rather identical sleep apnea profile at 64 weeks. Two prospectively studied infants in the preterm group later became SIDS victims. One of them might have been identified as being at risk on the basis of his apnea profile compared to the normative data now available.

    Notes: Abstract In Germany, the relative frequency of pineal region tumours seems to be much higher than hitherto assumed. At the University Hospital Hamburg, from 1980–1985 17 children with pineal region tumours were encountered amongst 102 children with CNS tumours. Two-cell-type germinoma is the most frequent pineal region tumour. Cerebrospinal fluid cytology is highly successful in identifying this germ cell tumour. Surgical removal has become a reasonably safe procedure in the treatment of pineal region tumours and was successful in all 10 cases so treated. In addition, our patients with two-cell-type germinomas received craniospinal axis radiation. All children, treated by both surgical removal and craniospinal exis radiation are so far relapse-free and are functioning on a pretreatment level.

    Notes: Abstract This is a report of a 11/2-year-old male with megaloblastic anaemia and a progressive neurological disorder clinically resembling leucodystrophy. The child was exclusively breast fed and his mother had been a strict vegetarian for more than 4 years before the child was born. After Vitamin B12 therapy the anaemia disappeared and the neurological condition dramatically improved.
