Neuro-oncology is a rapidly evolving subspecialty that involves the management of patients with primary or metastatic central and peripheral nervous system neoplasms, as well as any other disorders or complications affecting the nervous system that result either directly or indirectly from central nervous system or systemic malignancies and related treatment. Neurologists serve a critical role in the multidisciplinary management of these complex patients. As leaders of the Child Neurology Society Special Interest Group in NeuroOncology, we propose ways to provide sufficient exposure, minimize knowledge gaps, and optimize training experiences in neuro-oncology for child neurology residency programs.
神经肿瘤学是一个快速发展的亚专科,涉及原发性或转移性中枢和周围神经系统肿瘤患者的管理,以及任何其他直接或间接影响神经系统的疾病或并发症,这些疾病或并发症是由中枢神经系统或全身恶性肿瘤及相关治疗引起的。神经科医生在这些复杂患者的多学科管理中发挥着关键作用。作为儿童神经病学会神经肿瘤学特别兴趣小组的领导者,我们提出了一些方法,为儿童神经病学住院医师培训项目提供神经肿瘤学方面的充分接触、最小化知识差距并优化培训经验。
