Childhood central nervous system tumour mortality and survival in Southern and Eastern Europe (1983–2014): Gaps persist across 14 cancer registries

Highlights • Variations in CNS tumour survival/mortality are noted across Southern–Eastern Europe. • Survival declines fastest before the 2nd year of follow-up. • Rural residence has an adverse effect on the survival of childhood CNS tumours. • International disparities may reflect economic growth/h...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Variations in CNS tumour survival/mortality are noted across Southern–Eastern Europe. • Survival declines fastest before the 2nd year of follow-up. • Rural residence has an adverse effect on the survival of childhood CNS tumours. • International disparities may reflect economic growth/health-delivery inequalities. • Continuous cancer registration and follow-up favour reduction of survival disparities.
