Abstract

Calvarial tumors of children include a wide variety of lesions that are distinct from those forms commonly found in adults. They range from benign congenital masses to malignant erosive neoplasms, either primary or metastatic. These tumors may be encountered by a variety of clinicians. Calvarial tumors are rare, and the diagnosis and treatment of these lesions can vary significantly. In this chapter, we discuss common childhood calvarial tumors, their diagnosis, and treatment options.
