The treatment of pediatric brain tumors is an important branch of pediatric neurosurgery. Children's brain tumors are treated differently from adults because of the unique structure of their physical development. This paper reviews the milestones in the treatment of children's brain tumors at home and abroad and discusses the key technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of children's brain tumors, so as to look into the future.
