Paediatric brain tumours (PBT) are the most common cause of death among all childhood cancers. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been shown to prognosticate many adult cancers. There is a paucity of literature on the NLR in PBTs. This study aims to study the link between PBTs and the NLR by comparing the preoperative serum NLR in children under 16 with brain tumours with their outcome in terms of grade of brain tumour and overall survival.
