Changes in the Patterns of Care of Central Nervous System Tumours Among 16-24 Year Olds and the Effect on Survival in Yorkshire Between 1990 and 2009

The lack of any significant improvement in survival over time in most diagnostic groups warrants further investigation and provides justification for a more collaborative regional approach to the care of central nervous system tumours, perhaps through the development of regional guidelines for this unique population. More detailed analysis of relapse patterns and prediagnostic symptoms would also be informative for this cohort.
