General Information

Different types of rare childhood tumors are discussed in this summary. Because these tumors are rare in children, there may not be much information about the best treatment. Sometimes the treatment of these tumors in children is the same treatment used in adults. See the NCI Web site for information about adult cancer and its treatment.
