We present a child with a cerebellar medulloblastoma, diagnosed at age three, treated with near total surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, that recurred 13 years after the initial diagnosis. This late recurrence exceeds the typical 10-year survival statistics that are in common use, and exceeds the Collins rule. Continued follow-up of these children is justified to increase the likelihood of detecting these late recurrences early and to learn more about these late recurrences.
我们报告一名患有小脑髓母细胞瘤的儿童，三岁时确诊，接受了近乎全切除手术、放疗和化疗，在初次诊断13年后复发。这种晚期复发超出了常用的典型10年生存统计数据，也超出了柯林斯法则。对这些儿童进行持续随访是合理的，以提高早期发现这些晚期复发的可能性，并更多地了解这些晚期复发情况。
