Abstract

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy in children, and its central nervous system complications significantly impact the prognosis of children. In addition to the brain damage caused by ALL itself, recent researches have shown that anti-tumor therapy may also result in adverse effects. Investigating central nervous system injury associated with anti-tumor therapy in children with ALL is crucial for early identification and intervention of complications, ultimately leading to improved prognosis and quality of life for children.
