Abstract

Since epithelial tumours are much less common in children than in adults, individual experience of their behaviour and management is difficult to obtain. Although a wide range of these neoplasms does occur, the small number of each type included in the Register is insufficient for a satisfactory picture to be presented and it is necessary to draw considerably on the experience of other authors after describing the findings in the Manchester cases. Since this also applies to other rare non-epithelial tumours it is proposed to discuss both these groups in this chapter, which is therefore entitled “Epithelial and Miscellaneous Tumours”. Craniopharyngiomas, which are considered in Chapter 5, are not included in this section.
