Abstract
Metastatic medulloblastoma is a rare clinical phenomenon. Review of the literature and the authors' experience reveals that when it occurs, palliation may be achieved with a variety of single and combination chemotherapy programs. Two objective responses with vincristineβactinomycinβDβcyclophosphamide (VAC) and one each with adriamycin and methylβCCNU are described.
