摘要：
Delay in diagnosis and management of intra-cranial tumors can be costly if not actually fatal. We present a 16-year-old Nigerian girl with bilateral deafness and blindness from a cerebellar intra-axial medulloblastoma. She has regained some hearing function in both ears 5 months after tumor resection. She remains blind.
