title: [Intramedullary tumors in children. Apropos of 30 cases].
abstract: Thirty cases of primary intramedullary tumours have been analysed (17 astrocytomas, 6 ependymomas, 6 non-glial tumours) and 10 have died. The long delay in diagnosis (more than 3 years) must be emphasised. The value of myelography, the natural history and treatment are discussed.
