Abstract

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a malignant brain tumor that can occur in children and is very aggressive which means it can grow and spread quickly. Approximately 16% of all primary brain and central nervous system neoplasms are glioblastomas. This makes GBM a major public health problem. The incidence of glioblastoma in children varies.glioblastoma Low-grade has a higher incidence in children aged 0 to 14 years, which is 1.8/100,000 while high-grade glioblastoma is 0.5/100,000 lower than low-grade glioblastoma. where the incidence rate of glial and neuroepithelial tumors is higher in children aged 0-14 years.


Content: Various factors such as genetic and environmental factors have been studied in terms of the etiology of glioblastoma. GBM develops more frequently in children with specific genetic syndromes, such as neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), Li-Fraumeni syndrome, hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer, and tuberous sclerosis. However, most cases of GBM have no known cause. Symptoms of glioblastoma are non-specific. The duration of symptoms is usually short and lasts for several months


Summary: In children, central nervous system tumors are the most common, with 3-15% being glioblastomas. Glioblastoma usually presents with non-specific symptoms and lasts a short duration of several months. In addition, the prognosis is also poor with high morbidity and mortality so that to improve the patient's quality of life, effective therapy is needed. Therapy can be in the form of surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy.
