From our data, pediatric RICMs appear to display slight male predominance, present about 10 years after initial irradiation in late teen years, and present incidentally in majority of cases. They are mostly operated on when they bleed, with incidental lesions mostly being observed over time. Further prospective detailed studies needed to draw stronger conclusions.
