title: Primary intracranial tumours in Black and Indian children, 1960-1975.
abstract: This report of cerebral tumours in 60 children admitted to the medical wards of King Edward VIII Hospital, Durban, shows that cerebral tumour is the commonest solid neoplasm in both Black and Indian children. There is a significantly lower incidence of cerebral tumour in Black children. No difference was apparent in age, sex ratio, site or histological types in our racial groups compared with studies in White children from other parts of the world.
