The landscape of neuro-oncology in East Africa: a review of published records.

The modest collection of neuro-oncology publications from East Africa shows that the case diversity of primary CNS tumors in East Africa is comparable to the rest of the world. There is, however, poorer access to neurosurgical care and adjuvant therapy. Multidisciplinary efforts from clinicians, researchers, and healthcare agencies are needed to quantify and address the requisite neuro-oncology needs in this region.
