The presence of 2 active primary tumors in a child is both unusual and challenging. This places the clinician and the family in a difficult situation while planning the treatment. The concurrent presence of a low-grade brain stem glioma and acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a genetically normal girl is presented. The problems encountered with diagnosis and treatment are discussed here.
