[School reinsertion of children treated for tumors of the brain: experience of the Léon-Bérard center]. / Intérêt des projets d'accueil individualisés pour la réinsertion scolaire des enfants traités pour tumeur cérébrale: l'expérience du centre Léon-Bérard.

School integration of children with brain tumor is part of the quality of their life. It may also become a nightmare both for the child and for the teacher when no recommendation has been addressed to the latter. In France, official recommendations allow the meeting and information exchanges in the school between teachers and all the people who take care medically of the child. We report our experience in Centre Léon-Bérard of Lyon, concerning 38 children with brain tumors (102 meetings). Though difficult to assess scientifically, the benefit from these meetings is obvious. For the teachers: the knowledge and understanding of the physiopathology of brain tumors and secondary sequellae facilitates teaching. For the child: the disappearance of surrounding fears and fantasms make life easier. This experience is so rich that it should be extended to other pathologies.
