Tra reflussi e torcicolli

The paper descibes the cases of a 10-year-old girl and a 3-year-old boy with CNS neoplasia. The girl presented with acute vomiting and cervicalgia while in the boy vomiting persisted for three months as the only symptom and was iniatially misinterpreted as due to gastroesophageal reflux. The authors stress that in very young children (< 4 y) persistent vomiting may be the only symptom of a CNS neoplasia.
