Mayo Clinic in Minnesota has pediatric specialists to care for children who have craniopharyngioma. Brain tumors in children can be complex, but Mayo Clinic combines the most current treatment facilities with a team of pediatric care providers who offer children their best chance for surviving brain tumors. Pediatric neuro-oncologists, endocrinologists, behavioral pediatricians, and other physicians can minimize long-term effects of the tumor.
