Abstract
Cerebrovascular sequelae occur frequently after treatment for pediatric brain tumor. In this study, a remarkable part of pediatric brain tumor patients presents with CMB. As a sign of vascular damage, they can cause clinical symptoms and may correspond to neurocognitive decline. Further studies are needed to standardize MRI protocols and to improve quality of long-term follow-up.
